Dash is an original drawing and watercolour by Caitlin Flood-Molyneux — a study of a greyhound that captures the particular quality of a racing dog in motion: all elongated muscle and coiled speed, the grace and the urgency inseparable from each other.
Watercolour suits the subject well: the medium's transparency and flow carrying something of the animal's own qualities, the marks made quickly before they dry, the result retaining the energy of the making. Flood-Molyneux's practice is rooted in gestural mark-making and their greyhound work represents a quieter, more observational strand of a practice more often engaged with mixed media and collage. Original, one-of-a-kind, £195.
