Dogs of the Sefton Open 2025

The Sefton Open 2025 exhibition initiated earlier today at The Atkinson, and will remain open until the last day of May. Over the coming days I'll be sharing some of the artwork that has caught my eye, but, overall, I think this year's Open maintains the outstanding standard set last year, and is definitely worth a visit— or two.

Now, I'm not particularly a dog person, but I did spot several noteworthy canine portraits that I'm happy to share below: 

«Marley» by Fiona Williamson

 

«One Eye on the Puglian Red» by Viv Mercer

 

«Joy» by Elaine Dean

 (How cool is it to have your dog displayed in the Museum?)
