About

Welcome to Art Barke! Where dogs become art and every breed has a story worth celebrating.

Founded by Chelsea McShane, Art Barke was born from a love of painting, storytelling, and the joy dogs bring into our lives. What began as custom hand-painted pet portraits quickly evolved into a colorful collection of breed-inspired artwork created to celebrate the dogs we adore — not as exact replicas, but as artistic interpretations full of personality and charm.

From acrylic “shelfies” and ornaments to stickers, magnets, drink stirrers, and gifts, every piece is thoughtfully designed to capture the loyalty, humor, sweetness, and spirit that make dogs such meaningful companions. Whether you’re a proud Doodle mom, a lifelong Lab lover, a rescue advocate, or simply obsessed with your four-legged best friend, we believe your dog deserves to be celebrated in art that brings joy to your everyday life.

Chelsea’s signature style blends playful creativity, layered abstraction, and elevated design to create pieces that feel both collectible and giftable — artwork made to fit beautifully into homes, celebrations, and daily moments.

Thank you for allowing us to celebrate the dogs you love most alongside you.
