Kita, the Norwegian elkhound, gracefully bounds through the colorful autumn foliage, her coat blending seamlessly with the vibrant hues of Fall. As she frolics in the crisp air, Kita's playful spirit is mirrored by a litter of adorable elkhound puppies scampering alongside her. The scene captures the essence of pure joy and innocence. In another artwork titled 'Coursing: Returning, ' an oil on canvas masterpiece showcases the strength and agility of these magnificent creatures as they race back to their master after a successful hunt. Their determination is palpable, their loyalty unwavering. The Opening Meet of the Cotswold Hunt in 1957 is frozen in time through a black and white photograph. The image depicts hunters on horseback accompanied by their loyal elkhounds, ready to embark on an exhilarating chase across picturesque landscapes. September brings partridge shooting season, depicted beautifully in a color lithograph. Elkhounds stand proudly beside their human companions as they prepare for an exciting day filled with adventure and camaraderie. 'A Huntsman with his Hounds' portrays a harmonious bond between man and dog captured skillfully on canvas. The hounds gaze up at their master with adoration while he stands tall and proud amidst nature's beauty. 'The Meet Over the Gate' evokes nostalgia as it transports us to simpler times when huntsmen gathered eagerly before setting off into unknown territories together with their trusted elkhound companions by their side. A historical piece titled 'The Kill: The Earl of Bradford' immortalizes this noble breed alongside its esteemed owner during hunting expeditions from centuries past. It serves as a testament to both tradition and admiration for these remarkable animals. In 'A Huntsman Encouraging Hounds, ' pencil strokes delicately capture moments where man guides his loyal pack towards victory using gentle encouragement that only true understanding can bring forth.
