Love your pet day<\/b><\/p>\n

Alexander Salazar Fine Art Gallery held a special exhibition to celebrate Love Your Pet Day showcasing Artist Stephen Fishwick on Feb. 20. Everyone was invited to bring his or her pet and enjoy Fishwick\u2019s animal art collection. Guests arrived with Fido and had a chance to chat with the artist, enjoy his paintings or commission him for a special painting of their pet. As a special bonus Fishwick treated everyone to a live portrait of a cute black and white puppy (Eduardo). The painting was created right before their eyes in a matter of minutes using a black canvas with acrylics, and the crowd was in awe of the finished product.<\/b><\/p>\n

Fishwick has a list of professional clients that include Disney, the San Diego Zoo, Elvis Presley\u2019s Graceland, and more. The Fishwick\u2019s for Life collection raises awareness to save habitats and animals.
