Hollow Dog Warrior (A3 Poster Print)

This A3-sized poster print of Hollow Dog Warrior is a reproduction of one of my favourite mini oil paintings/sketches from my 2020/21 self-imposed painting challenge, where I set myself the goal of creating 100 new paintings over a 12 month period.

As with most of paintings from this series, Hollow Dog Warrior was painted directly onto the painting’s surface without any preliminary drawings or much in the way of me knowing what I was about to paint from the moment that I applied paintbrush to paint. I found this form of automatic painting very liberating and a fruitful creative exercise. It not only revealed new ideas and characters to me (as is the case with the Hollow Dogs, a series of cartoon characters that emerged from seemingly nowhere), but it also allowed me to be more experimental with the way I applied paint.

The prints are printed on glossy, heavy-duty 300gsm paper, with digital inks that give a silk finish. One of the things I especially like about these prints is that, in areas, you can see flecks of highlights and shadows where from where the paint was more thickly applied on the original painting.


There are more poster prints to come, and all of them are priced at £20 each with free postage. If you’d like one, just DM me or drop me an email at waynechisnall@yahoo.co.uk


If there is a painting or sculpture of mine that you particularly like and feel you need a print of it let me know as there’s a chance that I might already be considering getting it made into a poster print, and your interest could be the push I need to actually get it done.
