Holiday Dogs


Hope
Georgia
both pieces 16x16inches, acrylic on canvas, framed
commissions ($300.00 each)
It's no secret that I love painting dogs, they have been showing up in my work since I could hold a crayon, here are two recent commissions of dogs that I was asked to paint. I'd say more but our house is a mess and we have to get ready for a party.

Tis the Mad Crafty Season, Jennifer Schmitt sings "Blue Christmas"

  I was trying to post a video of Jennifer Schmitt playing her ukelele, you  can subscribe to her Youtube Channel "Parkdalian" to hear her singing "Blue Christmas" but blogger didn't seem to want to upload it, so here's the link http://www.youtube.com/watchv=MTaQoR2NpIs&context=C28453ADOEgsToPDskKuZCnFA2p5L6Jjn-4GBI0q
 click on it and go have a listen, (UPDATE: I've tried three times to get this to work, it won't, I guess you'll just have to go to Youtube yourself, try pasting the link in there) you may recognize someone hanging out in the back enjoying the tunes.

A.Shay Hahn, Who I am and What I do

Hey there, I just wanted to get a post up and let you know where you can find my work in Toronto, if you scroll down a bit on the blog you can see my dedicated wall at the Press Club (850 Dundas West) it changes almost weekly depending on sales, expect to see a new photo on the blog Friday, but there is where my smaller work hangs year round, I usually do a show at the Press Club once a year so always come back and check when that may be happening.
 I also have work hanging at Cowbell Bistro (1564 Queen Str. West) until January 11th, you can see the whole show if you scroll down a bit on this page - this work is stunning, I love it and it looks incredible in the space, very proud of this, definitive work for me for this year and reccomended for your collection.
 I've recently been doing more album design, this year I created album art for Dany Laj, Shotgun Wedding Band and the Unseen Strangers - you can read about that process and see my TShirt designs and band posters at the label (see right) Pub Life Sketches.
You can see the letters that I paint for kids of all ages at my other blog "the alphabet shoppe" (see links.)
 or go to "Any How Town" a series of books that I've been writing on and off for a year or so and will be finished the first book in the series by the end of  January, God willing.
 Okay, I hope that helps anyone who has been looking for me on the Internet.
 best,

 Incidentally this is the 700th post for this blog, bit of a milestone I suppose, bully for me and 400 Tweets, which is not very many, if you combine the three blogs it's over 900 blog posts.

"Favourite Animals" The Scottish Bull

The Scottish Bull
12x16inches, acrylic on canvas
$200.00 / $220.00 framed
I was polling on facebook what people's favourite animals were, the response was rather anemic, "my dog" is not much use to me (and would be a commission). I probably should've been more specific ie: What animal is a triumph of design? Or what animal looks the most like nobility ? Maybe we'll try again today.

Here is the wall at the Press Club, whicch is located at 850 Dundas West (between Euclid and Manning) I doubt that it will stay this way for long, I only have two other muppets available (a doozer and another Beaker) they'll show up on the wall when there's some space. I love the Musical Goon, best thing I've done in a while and yes paintings from the Royal Families are $140.00 until Christmas and will then return to their usual price $160.00
I've been having a great time doing illustrations of comic characters over at the Any How Town blog (see links) so you gotta go over there and check them out, I've been doing alot of sketching for a new series that I want to get to soon, so expect a few more things to show up here.
It's getting a little close for commissions but if there's something you want for Christmas, let me know this week. Also scroll down to see my show at Cowbell Bistro, those chairs are bee-eutiful.
all the best from Canada's most beloved painter,

A.Shay Hahn
