We are excited to share Yee’s Dog & Park Portrait Project on The-ArtInsight.com. This project focuses on something simple and heartfelt: the connection between people and their dogs, captured in the places they naturally spend time together. Instead of a formal studio, Yee steps into neighborhood parks and meets dogs and their humans during their regular walks.
The idea is direct and human. Dogs are photographed where they feel comfortable: on the grass, near a bench, along a familiar path. There is no heavy staging. The focus stays on personality and relationship. A playful jump, a quiet sit, or a curious glance toward their owner can become the moment that defines the portrait. These small details give each image its feeling and honesty.
Yee believes art is for everyone, and this series carries that belief. You do not need a special occasion or a perfect setup. If you are at the park with your dog, you can take part. That openness makes the experience welcoming. Art becomes part of daily life rather than something distant.
We like how this project turns ordinary routines into something lasting. A daily walk can become a portrait to keep for years. It is a reminder that meaningful moments often live in simple places. The park becomes a living backdrop, full of movement, chance, and natural light.
At the same time, Yee is also working on pet portraits in a studio setting. There, the approach shifts. She lets light and shadow construct the image, shaping mood and depth across the dog’s form. With a controlled environment, she uses her skill to guide the outcome, adjusting light, tone, and composition with intention. The result feels calm and focused, where details like fur texture, gaze, and posture come forward with clarity.
We like Yee and we are happy to see these two paths grow side by side. The Dog & Park Portrait Series feels open and spontaneous, while the studio work explores a quieter, crafted atmosphere. Together, they show how everyday companionship can be observed, shaped, and remembered through art. We look forward to seeing this collection continue to grow.
