The Online Gallery of Louise Peterson

"As a long time Great Dane owner, I see in these dogs a combination of playful goofiness and regal elegance. As a sculptor I see also a magnificent combination of long bones, muscled limbs, folds of skin and dynamic movement.

I donate a portion of my sales to rescue groups helping Great Danes less fortunate than my own.

Although canine subjects are the basis of most of my work, I am currently exploring the fusion of different animals with contemporary architectural elements while commenting on aspects of the human condition."
