1,600 pieces of art honor pets in a big new mosaic for Denton’s animal shelter
When dogs and cats (and the occasional hedgehog, guinea pig or iguana) leave the Linda McNatt Animal Care & Adoption Center with their forever family, they’ll pass under a very special new work of art.
Welcome Home is a sort of mosaic. About 1,600 small works of art — paintings made by Denton ISD students, Northwest ISD students, volunteers and members of the Art Room — are pieced together to show a cat and a dog lounging in the sun.

“Welcome Home” is the latest community art project by the Art Room. The project used 1,600 artist trading cards, 2.5 inches by 3.5 inches, that were then placed, collage-style to create the image of a cat and dog lounging in the sun.
