Greyhound Paintings

Catching up the blog with some recent greyhound paintings.  The first is an experimental painting of my greyhound, Train.  I wanted to capture her intensity and focus with dramatic lighting.  It was also my first time using lead white, which has earned a permanent place on my palette.
