Finley's Grill & Smokehouse in Jackson wanted to raise money to help Humane Society and they asked me to create a mural that would include:
[“Smokehouse Dog Story”
Traveling the country to bring the best Smokehouse BBQ to you, we heard stories and observed common practices of pitmasters in little towns and country intersections where pitmasters tended their smokers. Their “Smokehouse Dog”…a faithful companion would help the pitmaster tend the smoke-pits. Enter your dog to be “Finley’s Smokehouse Dog”.]
So, I composed this mural by combining a few pictures of a well known park in Jackson, the general manager and his dog, and the restaurant. All was done free hand and the customers loved the live performance.
