The title “Bonding with dogs” represents the strong connection between the author and dogs. Dogs use their whole life to make great companies with humans. I am lucky to have some dogs grew up with me. That’s the reason why I pick up my paint and brush to record those shiny memories with dogs.
This essay is divided into five chapters. The first chapter, Introduction, contains my motivation and my goal to my creation. My research methods and limitations are also in this chapter. The second chapter focuses on how dog’s body language, their emotional performance or dog’s breed affects my art-work. The third chapter introduces author’s personal experience, living habits, art experience and related references. I combined those together and learn how to use different materials to do my art-works in different ways. And those will be used in my two experiments in the following essay. The fourth chapter is divided into two categories. One is “No boundary” series which use the extension of the painting to let people can not only see the dog on the board but also imagine the picture outside the board. The other one is “Line” series which use calligraphy to paint and indicate the joy of dots, lines and surface.
The Fifth chapter, Conclusion, shares my personal reflection about doing this research. At the beginning, I was confused about my research and then I moved step by step to find out my process to create. By collection and reading references, I cleared up my mind and re-consider about myself and my future way of creation.
