June - early August, 2009     We return to Nepal to order new commissions for the 5th time.   Send a photo and your pet will be immortalized by 3 different Nepali artists.    We are branching out and taking orders for paintings of your home -- this is your chance to get a Nepali Extreme Home makeover!

Thank you for supporting the Nepali artists.

Everyone welcome.

The ‘Danger Dog’ project is about keeping the Nepali artists' dignity and giving work to these artists -- keeping art as a viable profession in this digital age.    Sometimes people want ‘Outsider Artists’ to be crazy and unhappy and destitute – isolates.    I want these Nepali signboard artists to be happy, healthy, and to thrive -- and their kids to go to good schools.
