Curtis and I went to New Orleans in December of 2002. Blue Dog was a celebrity all over town. George Rodrigue's Gallery is right in the French Quarter and you cannot go to this city without seeing his famous canine. Since then, I have collected Blue Dog stuff, had a painting of him in my classroom on the wall and love to see what kids think about Blue Dog Paintings. Recently I had my fifth graders choose between the Mona Lisa, American Gothic, Scream or Blue Dog, to study, and change. Here are some fantastic examples! I also just submitted them to Rodrigue's student gallery so keep your fingers crossed we get published! Check it out: http://www.georgerodriguefoundation.org/education
