A Dog Under A Dead Tree, Socar Myles (2D)

This is the third in a series of whippet paintings I have done for one customer over the course of about a year. The first two are http://www.epilogue.net/cgi/databas...iew.pl?id=11266 and http://www.epilogue.net/cgi/databas...iew.pl?id=18080.

I had originally painted the third dog in this setting: http://www.epilogue.net/cgi/databas...iew.pl?id=23814, but it was decided that the pose and situation of the dog didn't match the first two well enough, so it was recommissioned, and this is the result.

Very very nice. The tree is gorgeous. Do you have a wallpaper of that tree without the dog perhaps?

My only crit would be that the dogs' legs seem a bit deer-like, maybe they're too tall?

The tree is still stunning

Thanks--glad you like it! I don't think the tree would make a good wallpaper, unfortunately--it's more tall than wide, so it wouldn't quite fit the screen.

The dog looks half deer.

that is great, im glad you decided to use a dog. great his whole face is amazing looking as well.

wow i just chechecd out your other pics, your an incredible artist. i like the idea thatyour dog "im guessing your dog" is in your pics . taht is really neat.

It's been amazing watching your work over the last year or so. Beautiful!

More rats though

I love the goat ya got here. no really, the tree is just simply perfect. The colors are great, but I agree the dog has traits of another animal. Even still very good work

wow I really love this especially the blue one.. I don't think you need to fix anything about the dog.. he simple has a lot of character also the leg proportioons make him seem graceful and nearly unearthly

I really love this work... Great color schemes

i guess not every body is familiar with whippet dogs. Socar MYLES actually has done an excellent job of depicting what a whippet looks like
. see attached pic to see a real photo to compare. very nice job

Amazing Art, like all Myles works

I stand corrected, that IS one odd looking dog and you painted him perfectly. odd shape aside, I looked at the rest of your work and I must say, we have here a true master painter!

Did i ever tell you i felt in love with u ?

definetly your style

awwww! I used to own a Whippet...how cute haha
Also the sytle is very nice. I'd get a print of this.
