While artist Vincent Palmiotti of Warwick, RI often focuses on landscapes, Native Americans and wildlife, he also enjoys painting domestic pets. Here are a couple of lovable puppies - one bigger, the other, the runt. Maybe the big one knows the truth instinctively: The runt of the litter doesn't always stay the smallest!

Vincent primarily paints in oils and acrylics. He is an active participant at the Narragansett Art Festival and the State Employees Art Exhibit.
