XXX. German Shepherd

This piece was from yet another doodle, drawing of something in more basic geometric forms, like a number of previous pieces found here. This is a low relief (or bas relief- pronounced “ba relief “ because it’s French so the pronunciation makes no sense) of an idealized German Shepperd. I went for the stylized look with straight lines and curves, just because. And am I the only one who can never spell “shepherd? Shepphard? Shephard? Shepard? A police dog. Anyway, it lends itself to a low relief carving, which are always fun since there is only one side to carve. Hopefully someone can find it and give as a gift for Christmas. Ho ho ho.
