Brinks the Dog slobbers over windows, making distinctive marks.  His owner and manager Paul Amelchenko celebrates the art of his canine prodigy, while poking fun at the rhetoric of the art world.  Many of Brinks' creations are illustrated with fine photography, and some comments are added.  One memorable work is "Crazy Ex-Squirrel-Friend," slobber on glass, 9×12".  The accompanying caption reads "Much of the artist's work is about confronting the issues.  Especially when the issues are squirrels."  The book would make an amusing stocking stuffer.
