Berkley Illustration {Giveaway}

Let's consider animal paintings. Sure there are the dogs playing poker and the tons of Noah's Ark folk paintings, but what about something a little more reminiscent of a genteel family portrait? You know, animals dressed in collars and monocles, floating in a pastel background.
If that's what you're looking for, then Ryan Berkley is your man. He draws quirky portraits of animals dressed up in their finest, and sells them through his Etsy shop, Berkley Illustration. I love his work, which I received as a Christmas present from my husband.
There's Mr. & Mrs. Rabbit, and their friend Mr. Goat, who's eating his tie. For some reason I thought the goat resembled an old PA Dutchie farmer, like the many who live in our area.

And how about this guy, a John Wayne look-a-like perhaps? I just love a T-Rex in a country-western shirt.
Ryan also illustrates unusual animal antics, like the awards ceremony below.

Best Ever (limited edition)

At $15, his 8x10 prints are so reasonable. Wouldn't you like to have an unique piece of art like this hanging in your home? Believe me, you won't need to pull out those cheesy conversation starter cards at your next dinner party.
