Catalog Sighting: Pottery Barn

Sometimes you can spot Mugsy dogs in unusual places. For example, hiding out in the background of a home decor scene on page 83 of Pottery Barn's February 2014 catalog. There's some tasteful wrought iron candle holders, a rustic American flag wooden wall hanging....and a framed watercolor of a Boston Terrier!

Here's a slightly less distorted close up of our furry friend:

Unfortunately, the print was not for sale in the catalog and I haven't been able to locate the artist. If you happen to be familiar with the artist, please comment with his/her name and website and I will very happily give credit where credit is due.

Tattoo Sighting: Paul Dobleman

This nautical tattoo is by one of my favorite artists working in the American traditional style, Paul Anthony Dobleman, who works at Spider Murphy's Tattoo in San Rafael, CA.

Apparel Sighting: Black Market Art Company

Black Market Art Company offers a range of apparel and canvas prints highlighting work by tattoo artists. Given the seeming affinity tattooers and tattoo collectors have for BTs, it's not that surprising to find at least one in their catalog. This V neck ladies shirt features art by Thea Fear of a sailor pup smoking a pipe (don't try that at home with your Mugsy dog).

You can purchase this shirt through Black Market Art Company directly, or through the Inked Shop.
