Your dog can have his dinner in a work of art. David Hockney and other noted artists have decorated simple white bowls to benefit a Los Angeles pet charity. The distinctive bowls will go up for auction on November 23 at Bonhams & Butterfields in Los Angeles and San Francisco. The bowls are by David Hockney, Charles Arnoldi, Ross Bleckner, Robert Longo and Edward Ruscha and Kenny Scharf and are each estimated at $2,500 to $3,500. Proceeds from the simultaneous auctions will benefit PAWS/LA, a group helps low-income seniors and those disabled by life-threatening illnesses keep and care for their pets. It provides free veterinary care, pet food and supplies, vaccinations, grooming, foster homes for more than 2,500 pets.
