'Gretel' 11x14" Watercolour on 140lb Bockingford paper
"Gretel, the English Pointer is out playing with her hunting companion the Hawk. Racing along the heathery cliffs of Cornwall. Suddenly there, just past the old ruins of a tin mine engine house she spies an enchanted forest. Creeping closer, and closer Gretel sniffs the air & stops in suprise as all the magical creatures come out to greet her...."
Historical reference: In ancient Medieval Britain, Pointers were traditionally used in Falconry, to hunt alongside the Hawks & Falcons, so I decided to include a Hawk here, as a nod to Gretel's heritage. (Gretel actually lives & plays in the beautiful state of Colarado, USA! )
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.

Featuring `ATrue's Literary Fundraiser, works from many Literature Groups on Deviantart aswell as Personal Choices and #Xpose-it's quiz night on the 26th March!
