Hunting the Woolly Mammoth
Pursuing the Woolly Mammoth

Watercolor, Charcoal, Coffee on hand-made Indian watercolor paper
8" x 6"
2005

This Cave Dachshund painting was inspired by the gorgeous cave art of pre-history, particularly that seen in Lascaux, France. Imagine, 17,000 to 35,000 years ago, the noble Dachshund living with the primitive people of world as they lived and hunted and played...this is perhaps how some artist would have represented their companion on the walls of their home.
In this illustration a packs of dachsies hunts a Woolly Mammoth, probably a young one but still much, much bigger than these diminuitive long dogs. If they succeed in their heroic quest there will be meat for them and their human tribe, and some mighty big bones for them to tussle over later.
