Springer Spaniel (40th Anniversary Image)

This print is from a collection of 4 new releases for July 2017, celebrating Nigel Hemming's 40th year as a professional artist. The 4 paintings feature the following breeds: Black Labrador, Springer Spaniel, Border Collie & West Highland Terrier.

With a limited edition print run of just 40 copies worldwide, this is a rather special collector's item for those that follow Nigel's artwork, marking his anniversary or for those that just love paintings of this breed!

One of a series of limited editions, celebratory Nigel’s 40 years as a professional painter, here we have the iconic Springer Spaniel. To many, the springer spaniel represents the most intelligent breed, certainly of British gun dogs.

Nigel has captured the inquisitive nature of the dog in her gaze and the breed’s deep intelligence in her eyes, as she awaits the master’s call to action!

Notice the dog’s body is out of focus and the face and head is in focus, as Hemming continues his modern artistic interpretation of one of the UK’s most popular breeds.
