Frozen Hare

Pastel on Velour paper

8" x 12"

November 2009

This image shows a mature hare, "frozen" but alert. Hares stay very still and rely on their great speed to escape from threats. While this may work with foxes, a lurcher is  as fast a hare. Saluki lurchers in particular can match the hare's skill in  twisting and turning.
