Whispers on the Wind

Whispers on the Wind
From the “Echoes of the Field” Collection

There are moments in the countryside when everything falls still. No sound, no movement — just a quiet pulse in the landscape, as if the earth itself is holding its breath. Whispers on the Wind captures one such moment.

Abi, an experienced English Springer Spaniel, stands at the woodland's edge with unwavering focus. Her gaze is locked on a lone pheasant in the distance, the instinct to move held tightly beneath the surface. The cool shade of the woods lies behind her, the sunlit field ahead — she is between two worlds, one of patience and one of purpose.

This image is more than a portrait. It’s a story of connection: between dog and bird, dog and land, handler and hound. Every element speaks to the long tradition of working dogs in the British countryside — their loyalty, drive, and silent understanding of what needs to be done. The soft, painterly finish lends a timeless feel, echoing the classic sporting prints of years gone by, while the detailed textures pull you into the scene, as though you were standing just behind her.

Framed in either rich mahogany or warm walnut, this piece brings a grounded elegance to any space. It’s part of the Echoes of the Field collection — a growing body of work that honours the still, soulful moments shared between working dogs and the wild spaces they inhabit.

Whether you're a lover of gundogs, a keeper of tradition, or someone drawn to the quiet poetry of rural life, Whispers on the Wind invites you to pause — and listen.
