Rescued! Portraits of Homeless Animals

On exhibit at the Westover Branch Library, August and September 2012.

While volunteering with the Homeless Animal Rescue Team, Julie Hart found a way to give homeless animals a voice.  Her oil paintings capture the heart and soul of animals who have suffered through abuse and abandonment:

Julie says, ” I find great artistic  interest in painting the way light hits a moist nose, fur glistens with a rainbow of colors, and sky reflects in a dog’s eyes.  I want my paintings to be more than a photograph can be, emotionally and artistically.” Julie works on commission, and donates a portion of her sales to animal rescue organizations.
