Welcome to Best Friend NYC's  "Artist Spotlight" - a unique rotating online showcase of dog art . "Artist Spotlight" is a not-for-profit art installation providing artists with an opportunity to display their dog-themed artwork.

All of  the featured artists are equally inspired by our four-legged canine companions, yet each one uniquely interprets their passion for dogs into a distinct and truly original art form.   

We hope that you enjoy exploring these beautiful dog-inspired art galleries and share your experiences on our Dog Blog and Facebook Fan Page. Come back soon to see new artists and more dog art!


Best Friend NYC donates a significant portion of all "Artist Spotlight" proceeds to support ASPCA. 








 
EVELYN MORRIS HECHT  |  Chapel Hill, NC

Evelyn Morris Hecht, a basically self taught designer and artist, spent 15 years in the New York fashion industry. Her experience includes designing under her own label EVELYN MORRIS, and a variety of positions in established fashion houses.

After rescuing her first dog Ollie, an abused Bichon Frise, Evelyn started using her talent as an artist to do dog portraits, with the intention of someday turning them into a business that could contribute to the cause of animal rescue.  With Ollie as her inspiration and a frequent subject, the business Top Dog Art was created in 2004. At Top Dog Art one can find fine art prints of soulful graphite drawings as well as a selection of unique and spirited animal-themed jewelry.

Top Dog Art benefits a variety of animal rescue groups. Evelyn has also been a member of the Pastel Society of North Carolina since 2001.
