If you would like to have your dog (cat, horse, chicken, bunny, bearded dragon, etc.) immortalized on metal here in Nepal, you can send me a photo of your pet. I will return to Nepal in fall, 2019.
You choose the style, the color, what you would like the sign to say...
This hand-painted art form is fast disappearing in Kathmandu, as it already has in most parts of the world. I pay fair trade wages, the artists get to paint again, pet lovers get a choice of three paintings for each commission, and I get to help Nepali artists make a living. Everybody is happy. Rescue dogs from America get to rescue artists from Nepal!
HOW TO ORDER
To order, please send me a photo of your pet. I will give it to three different artists, giving you a choice of 3 paintings and three artists will get work. Each painting is about one square foot and is on metal with synthetic enamel paint. These can be hung indoors or out, be framed or unframed.
While I am in Nepal, your pet will be featured on the Danger Dog Blog, as I stop into the artists' studios and document the works in progress.
Satisfaction is guaranteed as I accept no money up front. If you do not like one of the three, you pay nothing, and the 3 artists are paid in full in any case. Let me know what you want it to say and that's it!
Send your photo to ampage1@gmail.com or find out more at www.NepalDog.com.
Let's keep these artists painting.
American Dogs = Nepali Jobs.

Sanjib's artwork just keeps improving.
Here are 6 of his latest works:
Miller is a handsome dog and Sanjib did a great job capturing his sweet demeanor.
Lucky's Cocker Spaniel ears are festooned with flowers. Sanjib also captured Lucky's elegant surroundings.
Dexter the Beagle stands out in Sanjib's bold portrait.
Clement the French Bulldog by Sanjib Rana captures his intense gaze. It is almost Cubist.
Dalev's intensity is evident in this portrait of a Canaan Dog by Sanjib Rana.
Jitters and Mia are having a romp in this fun portrait by Sanjib Rana.

Live from Kathmandu: Nepali dogs
Nepali dogs are often well-treated, especially in Boudha. There are a number of animal rescue organizations in Kathmandu that do a good job of spaying (not neutering, however), mange control and general health care.
Foo the Pug Puppy is the latest addition to a rather large family. This handsome boy pup has 3 young kids to coddle him, but only the mother feeds him. Some things are universal.
This young dog poses nicely against the backdrop of a Boudha sidewalk.
A well-dressed Terrier mix greets me near the Boudha Stupa.
A straightforward gaze from this shepherd mix.
A nice profile shot of my well-dressed friend.
Here is an example of a Danger Dog portrait. Your pet could be featured here!
