"Mars" by Stephen Eidson $2000

Artist Statement: "We purchased Mars as a purebreed, but not registered, because he had too much white on his chest area. He probably would have been put down otherwise. The painting was inspired by the strong directional lighting and the noble pose he displayed. Pets are subject to our control over them. They remain good natured and loyal even when subjected to sub standard care. The responsibility for their comfort and welfare is in our hands, and they will reward us richly, with their devotion and trust, for our humane stewardship."
