Art for canines is quite different than it is for humans, because dogs only have two color receptors: Blue and Yellow. Colors in between those two, are often referred to as “Greige“: muddy blends of green-grey. While they generally see well at night, k9 vision has less contrast but far more sensitivity for motion than humans.
Far left painting: yellow swallowtail butterfly, placed vertically above an orange monarch butterfly, on a bright teal background with green fern spirals, trimmed with a red border. Center Painting: centered giant lime green praying mantis, with a spiraled pink earthworm in the upper right corner, on a bright red background trimmed in bright yellow. Far right Painting: 3 arcing, overlapped green leaves, each supporting a bright red & black ladybug. The vivid yellow background is trimmed in azure blue. A black white and gray semi domesticated beast, is looking away from the paintings, wishing he could see red like we do. Malik has also never seen a red native ladybug, due to pesticides, light pollution, and introduction of asiatic species that are orange and bite!
