Greyhound on Grey Paper

Greyhounds are very popular pets in my area. Many have been rescued from the track.  Although they are large and can run like the wind, they are a very sweet, gentle dog. They are quite graceful and rarely bark (something that appeals to me since I have a 'barky boy' in my household). 

I did this drawing as a study for a painting that I plan to do, although I think it is nice in it's own right.
