Did You Know?
The Bloodhound wasn’t named for its incredible sense of smell! Instead, the name comes from the belief that these dogs were of royal, pure, or noble blood. While best known for their unmatched tracking abilities, Bloodhounds have long been admired for their loyal and gentle nature as well.
With every piece I create, my goal is not only to inspire and entertain but also to educate—embedding fascinating facts like these directly into my artwork.
For this Bloodhound piece, I carefully selected words like devoted, sensitive, and inquisitive, along with phrases such as “sleuth hound,” “escape artists,” and “will eat almost anything!” In total, you’ll find over 40 words and phrases hidden within the design, each one celebrating this remarkable breed.
Every piece of my art is digitally hand-drawn, one letter at a time, with no word or phrase ever repeated. Depending on the complexity, each artwork takes between 6 and 60 hours to complete.
I truly hope this piece brings you as much joy as I had in creating it!
