Marvin, my very chill Afghan hound!

In this etching, the Afghan hound emerges as a construction of line. There is no scene, no setting, only the profile, held in a moment of alert stillness.

The mark is quick, economical, yet sufficient to establish the structure of the body. The long neck, the lifted head, the flow of the coat are all conveyed through a few strokes that suggest rather than describe.

The surface of the print retains the image, making it thin, almost suspended. The hound is not shown in motion, but in a gathered form, as if movement were already contained within the line itself.

Within this economy of means, a quiet precision becomes evident. The greyhound resolves into measure, proportion, and essential presence.

Doggust 2023 -Day: 26 -Breed: Afghan Hound -Name: Pixie -Story: Pixie is a show dog that has a very busy schedule. She knows being the best pleases her owner, but if it were up to her, she would spend the day relaxing instead.

This year for Doggust I am making one dog character a day (or reviving an old character) from the official Doggust prompts. Dogs have always been one of my biggest inspirations. From the vastness of the breeds, the expressive features and their amazing antics, they are the perfect subject to draw as a cartoon!
