Description
This watercolor was done from a reference photo I took many years ago of a few of the Plum Run Hunt hounds in Gettysburg Pa. The hounds came from Beaufort Hunt in England. The one in front and center caught my eye with his soulful expression as he searched for the huntsman's gaze and acknowledgement. Each one has a unique personality making them fascinating to watch.
"All things on earth point home in old October; sailors to sea, travelers to walls and fences, hunters to field and hollow and the long voice of the hounds, the lover to the love he has forsaken." ~ Thomas Wolfe
