The sun has always been a key element of Rodrigue\u2019s art.\u00a0 It first appeared in the early landscapes and Cajun series paintings as a light in the distance, symbolizing hope for a brighter tomorrow.\u00a0 Soon after, the sun became more abstracted, and took the form of swirls of yellow and gold.<\/p>\n

Then, in 2002, when Rodrigue began his\u00a0Hurricane\u00a0series, the swirl became an even stronger signature theme in his work, representing the energy and power of these massive storms.\u00a0 The swirl that had once enlivened his landscapes now had grown to encompass the entire canvas as its sole subject.\u00a0 Rodrigue was fascinated by the shape, and he continued to use the swirl as a prominent motif for the rest of his life.<\/p>\n

As with his Cajun works, George Rodrigue\u2019s titles described a scene in the simplest of terms.\u00a0 The paintings themselves hold narratives, and their titles often state the obvious.\u00a0 However, the Blue Dog is always engulfed in mystery, and the titles often became an important part of the intrigue, not only shedding light on the artist\u2019s intent, but forcing us to look at the art, and the world in a different way.<\/p>\n
