Afghan Hound is one of a popular and glamourous dog in the rings. In wild, it is a hunter, but as a pet it is a peaceful "catlike" dog. People are attracted because of its volume of fur which makes him look royal.



I have used Oil Pastels for this particular piece. Key to this artwork is patience. Several layers of fur is created using different tones of brown, orange and black color. Using different colors to create thin, thick and curvy and organic lines according to the contour of the dog’s body. Blending colors of one layer and building several other on top of previous one give the illusion of dog’s fur as together.
