Peter Pettegrew

Peter was recently asked to produce a painting to help raise money for this years Canine Companions for Indpendence’s fundraising auction in Orlando, Florida www.cci.org. To incorporate a dog into his signature landscape, Peter came up with the concept of illustrating the way that dogs and humans first came together thousands of years ago. The image depicts a wolf approaching a group of early humans as they roast meat for their evening meal. The scene was meant to suggest the first timid visits by forest wolves, which later became man’s fundamental companions.
