Presented here as a boxed giclee on canvas piece, 'Spot the Dog' is the latest pictorial incarnation by new contemporary animal artist, Hayley Goodhead.

Stare at new contemporary animal artist, Hayley Goodhead’s latest composition too long and you’ll be under the command of the next person whose voice you hear, due to the hypnotic effect of all those polka dots you’re confronted with.

However if you instead focus your immediate attentions on the Dalmation seated to the right, foreground of ‘Spot the Dog’, you’ll note, well, the spotty dog. But on second glance you’ll see that there’s something afoot, and sporadically applied in betwixt that visually corruptive cacophony of spots there be other canine-derived images quirkily painted into the fur. Dog bones and paw prints to be precise, which the casual observer might well have overlooked otherwise.

You’ll find this is trademark Goodhead, or at least you will when she becomes more of a household name. Which she will based on her latest collection, which embodies humour, warmth, frivolity and inexplicably life-like, detail-savvy illustrative portrayals of *dogs.
