Help me identify a painting of a dog walking through a neighborhood at night.

I once owned a t-shirt that had a painting of a dog walking through a neighborhood at night. Help me identify the painting.

Around 1992, I bought a t-shirt at the University of Illinois campus bookstore. On the t-shirt was a painting of a dog walking through a neighborhood at night. I liked that painting quite a bit, and now I'd like to try to find it again.

There are some other details which I only half-remember--feel free to take some liberty in your suggestions: the dog was sort of bluish, painted in a style which sort of reminded me of Ivan Albright. The painting was more of a portrait aspect ratio. The dog was painted in 3/4 profile. It was not a happy dog.

If I had to guess, the artist had a Polish name.

Was it a Rodrique Blue Dog?

Response by poster: It was not a Rodrique Blue Dog, although those are pretty cool paintings, too. :)

Response by poster: Hey, so it's been almost a year, but just in case anyone finds this via search engine, the he artist I was looking for was Leonard Koscianski.
