Having no image to reference, Rodrigue turned to a photograph of his dog Tiffany, who died years earlier. He manipulated the shape and stance and gave her coat a matted and scruffy appearance. Under the pale light of the moon, she appeared blue grey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt wasn’t until 1988, at an exhibition of his work in Los Angeles, that Rodrigue first overheard the phrase “Blue Dog,” leaving the artist a lot to think about when he returned to his easel in Louisiana. Over the next two years, he experimented with the shape, changing the eyes from red to yellow and giving the dog a much friendlier persona.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese paintings from 1989 to 1991 are transitional images, where the Blue Dog has not yet left the Louisiana landscape but is no longer a threatening \u003cem\u003eloup-garou\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003cem\u003eMardi Gras Dog\u003c\/em\u003e is one of those paintings. Created in 1991, the focus of the composition is the Blue Dog dressed in Mardi Gras paraphernalia, painted as though it were a Cajun person — a ghost at eye level, trapped within the artist’s design and existing within an actual environment. This iconic painting celebrates its thirtieth anniversary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo commemorate the beginning of the transformation from \u003cem\u003eLoup-garou\u003c\/em\u003e to the Blue Dog, Rodrigue Studios is proud to release a stunning estate-stamped stone lithograph, published in Paris, France, of \u003cem\u003eMardi Gras Dog\u003c\/em\u003e.
