Jasper | 6" × 6"
About the Artwork
Jasper is a 6" × 6" acrylic on birch panel by Peter Wyse. The work presents a black-and-white dog holding a daisy, with a small ladybug resting on one ear against a blue background.
The asymmetrical black-and-white markings give the dog a strong graphic presence within the square format. Wyse uses softened shading around the eyes, nose, and spots while keeping the background open and uncluttered.

Accessibility Description
This square painting shows a black-and-white dog facing directly outward against a clear blue background. The dog has rounded, floppy ears extending outward near the upper edge. A small red ladybug with black spots rests on the tip of the left ear. The face is primarily white, with a large black patch covering the viewer's left side of the head and eye area. Additional black spots appear on the viewer's right side of the face and lower body. The eyes are large, glossy, and brown, set within soft grey shadows. A broad black nose occupies the lower centre of the image and is highlighted with a small white reflection. A white daisy with a yellow centre appears on the right side, attached to a curved green stem that crosses diagonally across the front of the dog. The composition is tightly cropped, emphasizing the animal's face, spots, and simple flower form. The painted surface shows layered brushwork, rubbed edges, and fine tonal shifts in the white and black areas.

Artwork Care
CARING FOR YOUR ARTWORK
Display
Hang artwork away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and air vents. UV exposure causes fading over time — UV-protective glazing is recommended for works on paper and photography. Avoid hanging artwork above fireplaces or in bathrooms where heat and humidity fluctuate.
Cleaning
Dust frames gently with a soft, dry cloth. Never use household cleaners, water, or solvents on the artwork surface. For oil paintings, a soft-bristle brush can be used lightly to remove surface dust. Professional cleaning is recommended for valuable or delicate pieces.
Temperature & Humidity
Maintain a stable environment — ideally 18–22°C (65–72°F) with 40–55% relative humidity. Rapid changes in temperature or humidity can cause warping, cracking, or flaking. In Alberta’s dry climate, a humidifier can help protect your collection during winter months.
Handling & Moving
Always handle artwork with clean, dry hands or cotton gloves. Carry framed works by the sides of the frame — never by the hanging wire. When transporting, wrap in acid-free tissue or soft blankets and keep upright. For valuable pieces, professional art handlers and custom crating are recommended.
Storage
Store artwork upright in a cool, dry, dark space. Use acid-free materials for wrapping. Never store artwork in attics, basements, or garages where temperature and humidity are uncontrolled.
Insurance
We recommend insuring your art collection. An up-to-date appraisal (every 2–3 years) ensures proper coverage. West End Gallery offers professional appraisal services — please enquire for details.
