The Family by Doug Hyde

One of the most popular and sort after of Doug's sculptures that feature 'Monty' the black dog (some say black labrador) and the classic 2.4 children!

Something about these Hyde images that have the two parents and two children works so well and his many fans connect with – we still get enquiries for this sculpture often, even though its long since sold out.

Doug's paintings often appear simple and childlike but the messages are often profound; here he reminds us that a child only desires his family (Mum, Dad, Brothers and Sisters) to be together, happy and heathy - and their beloved pets too!

Although called 'The Family,' this is actually the sculpture depiction of the limited edition: 'Happy Families.'

By leaving the background dark and plain, the artist focuses all attention on the faces of the smiling family he has created in the centre.
