Greyhound Painting

I was really surprised and thrilled to receive an email this morning from Tessa Day. She had contacted me a while back and asked if she could use my photo Greyhound Peering Out for a painting she was doing for an exhibition to benefit greyhound dogs. I have read a few articles in the past about some work for these dogs as they retire from racing and general adoption for people that love these lanky elegant dogs.

Here is the final painting. I love it!! How amazingly talented! She got the perspective right and the proportions of the dog right. It's kinda uncanny how similar yet different to the original. I wish her luck with the exhibition and am honored to have my picture inspire a painting.

I would encourage you to check out her other work at TessaDay.com. Some great stuff. Check out a few of the mouse paintings at the bottom. Really creative.

Here is the original again.
