This painting is part of another exhibit at the Western Spirit Museum in Scottsdale. The artist is Veryl Goodnight and she is both a painter and sculptor. There were several paintings in the exhibit featuring these beautiful working dogs. In this painting she is showing the variety of breeds used during the gold rush era.
Next to the painting was this photo that points out the different types of dogs depicted in the painting. There is a five minute video telling the story of these dogs and also featuring more of her paintings here.
I stood there looking at these wonderful dogs and wished I could give them a pat on the head or a warm hug.

The painting is so realistic, really impressive. I would join you by the way in giving them a pat and a hug.
