One November I ‘car-topped’ to watch the local Long Lake Hounds on a hunt.  I was able to get some fine photographs of the riders and pack but the first painting I did was of this hound.  The hunt was over and the pack was back in the hound trailer when this one squeezed it’s head out the window into the silvery autumn light. I saw such a look of longing to go run again.
