A close, intimate portrait of a black dog emerging from cool water, its amber eyes catching light against a dense, textured coat. Loose watercolor and gouache brushwork create movement through the rippling surface, while the softened mountain backdrop keeps the focus on expression—steady, alert, and quietly human.
Watercolor and gouache on 5 × 5 inch cold press paper, 2026
