This Penta cover featuring George Clinton's MY DAWG began as a painting with “vivid mark making” created from acrylics, markers, and spray paint using drips, brushstrokes, and sprays. Images of dogs—big eyes with long floppy ears—have been part of funk-rock musician George Clinton’s signature since the 1980s, scrawled on album covers and other fan memorabilia.
Dogs, and their “primal instincts” have been “my personal thing,” he says. For this work, Clinton was inspired by Atomic Dog, a No. 1 R&B hit from his 1982 solo album Computer Games, and he collaborated with DiGGital doGG, rapper Snoop Dogg’s digital media and content production company.
