Hounds of Annwn - Cwn Annwn

by Arikla in Arikla's Artwork

Created 1 year, 6 months ago

Rating: G

Medium: Watercolor pencils

Tags: snow red hell hound wild saluki hunt eyed

Category: Anthro

An experiment with Watercolor Pencils and with a different type of watercolor surface. Not overly fond of the surface, too rough for my tastes, but I am ok with how this came out.

The "Cwn Annwn" or Hounds of Annwn are the hounds of the wild hunt. They bring the souls of the dead to the underworld. In Welsh mythology they are white hounds with red ears. I took a bit of artistic license and made them red-eyed instead.

Actually, I do have a picture in my mind/semi-sketched that involves a deerhound... so be patient with me and I hope to have it done in a few months :) Thanks for stopping by and commenting, by the way :)
