A golden spaniel gazes out with large, dark eyes, its long, softly curling ears framing a gentle, thoughtful face. Honey golds, creams and rich chestnut browns gather in loose, petal-like brushstrokes, scattering at the edges into a pale blue background. There’s a familiar tenderness in that patient expression, a quiet reminder of the companionship of a much-loved dog.
Golden Gaze is part of Rosie Smith’s Fragmented series, a collection of close-up animal portraits where the subject emerges from loose, painterly marks, blurring the boundary between animal and background.
