TRUE COMPANIONS
LIMITED EDITION CANVAS - JW00044
NOTES: John is known nationally as the foremost portrait artist of the canine species. His intimate observation of the animal has evolved into an insight into our relationships with them and even ourselves. And, in the case of this particular painting, himself. True Companions is an homage to his Labrador retriever, Maggie. Though John does not paint himself into his own work, we are observing a common occurrence in his own backyard. While the two seem to be basking in the warmth and amber glow of the evening’s fire, is it possible that something else deflects the night’s chill? In the company of his steadfast companion, a moment that could be considered full of loneliness becomes one of magic. Published from the artist’s original oil painting..
TRUE COMPANIONS Canvas by John Weiss is signed by the artist and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

John Weiss bio
"I enjoy painting things people can relate to," John Weiss says, "perhaps because I can relate to them myself. They re familiar things, part of an everyday life we can understand and enjoy." Weiss developed this appreciation during his childhood in Akron, Ohio. His father was a draftsman to whom John credits his disciplined approach to art. He drew throughout his childhood and developed his skill in high school art classes. On a trip to Maine, he saw an exhibit of Andrew Wyeth s work, which inspired him to pursue art while attending Kent State University. Weiss left college after two years to go into the landscape business, but he returned to full-time painting within four years. "My work is essentially self-taught," he maintains. "I study the work of artists I admire and learn from their methods and techniques. I studied color theory by referring to a color wheel and mixing paints. Experience is the best teacher." Weiss persevered with his study and his dedication has paid off. Today his paintings of dogs and of horses have an avid and loyal following. "Word of mouth has resulted in my works being sold all over the world," he says. "There was even one portrait of a dog that was presented to Queen Elizabeth by Lady Barlow." Weiss work is exhibited regularly and recently he won the "Cover of the Year" award from the National Dog Writers Association.
