About the Artwork
This charming gouache painting by Angela Smyth captures a stylised side profile of a spotted dog set against a vivid red ground. Smyth’s distinctive visual language — playful, graphic, and gently humorous — is immediately recognisable here. The dog’s elongated neck and upward gaze give the composition a sense of character and quiet personality, while the simplified shapes and bold contrasts create a striking, contemporary feel.
The crisp white mount and black frame enhance the artwork’s clean, modern presentation, making it ideal for both collectors of Smyth’s work and those seeking a unique, uplifting piece for the home. Signed and inscribed on the verso, this original painting reflects the artist’s celebrated ability to blend warmth, wit, and strong design sensibilities.
