This week’s challenge is Work of Art.  The post says art can be anything, from the painting you love to the sculpture your five year old made in kindergarten.

I’ve been thinking about this and wonder if it can’t involve more.  Dance is art isn’t it?

So when I saw a poster for the Bow Wow Motor City Freestyle Dog show happening this weekend only a few miles from me I thought…..Huh!  Dance+Dogs = Art!  Right?

I got to the event early this morning and spent a fun hour watching people and their dogs run through their routines in front of judges.

The people seemed nervous.  The dogs?  Not so much.

There was much applause and smiles.

The venue wasn’t exactly photogenic, and of course the dancers were preforming for the judges more than for me.  Still, I think in the end you have to agree that dogs, people, music and dance is one fun way to express a form of art.

See a couple of my favorites from other photographers  looking for art here, here, and especially here.  Me?  I’m still looking for the perfect photo to express art…stay tuned.
