Renaissance Pawtraits

Inspired by the essential renaissance characteristics, specifically relating to people and how they are portrayed, but with a little twist.

The Renaissance movement brought realism back to art and presents people in their true form.  in my twist, The animals are the center of attention and the backgrounds are plain.

The subjects are posing for the artist and are represented realistically.

The Renaissance period saw the first oil paintings, and this became the standard for artists everywhere. people of high social status were often depicted, this also become the first time in history that anyone can have a painting of themselves .so long as they had the money to pay for it. 

the culture of the portrait was born. that was the inspiration for this series 

By transforming typical Pet images into fine artworks, we humanized and transformed the furry and feathery creatures, into Barons, Generals, Kings, and Queens.
