The Story
Size:39 x 39 in.
Doug Hyde’s original painting Day’s Like These (30" x 30") radiates serenity and affection, capturing a moment of quiet connection between a figure and their loyal companion. Bathed in the warm embrace of a golden sunset, the pair sit nestled among wild daisies on a grassy riverbank, gazing towards a glowing horizon. The intense oranges, pinks and soft purples blend into a dreamlike sky, reflecting gently on the still water and evoking a sense of peace, nostalgia, and contentment.
Hyde’s tender composition distils the emotion of the scene with remarkable simplicity. His iconic character, rendered with soft edges and rounded forms, sits quietly arm in arm with a dog, a motif that recurs often in his work as a symbol of unconditional love and companionship. The figures are silhouetted against the light, underscoring their bond while inviting the viewer to imagine themselves in the moment.

Known for his signature smile and vivid use of colour, Hyde transforms everyday moments into profound visual statements.
