Polly Thompson’s “Explorer’s Club” charmingly depicts a dog’s appreciation of life’s simple pleasures. Conveying a dogs’ strong physical expressions of emotions, Thompson’s work symbolizes the deep feelings we have in common with them. Achieving an airbrushed appearance through the use of layered oil paint, Thompson bases many of her endearing artworks on Reggie, her dearly departed dog.
Polly Thompson has been painting modern narrative studies of curious canines for over 20 years, yet she doesn’t consider herself a dog painter. People sometimes mistake her artwork for being airbrushed because of its smooth surfaces, but Thompson achieves the effect with soft brushes.Trading a medical career to be an artist, Thompson dedicated herself to seizing the day by pursuing a vocation she passionately enjoys. She and her husband divide their time between Burlington, Vermont and Lake Champlain, the ultimate artist’s environment.
