With the medium of traditional oil paint, this charming piece by Chaval is exceptionally detailed and thought-provoking. Following a realist approach, yet depicting some playful imperfections, gives this piece a spiritual character, revealing itself through the use of color and forms that emerge during the creative process. Finding inspiration in what uniquely captures the artist's attention, as if it were an expression from beyond this realm, Chaval aims to express an atmosphere that first takes shape in his mind before materializing into the artwork. In this painting, we find a realist portrait of two greyhounds against a Venetian background, presented in a particular style that is very connected by his marked sense of humor, irreverent and frivolous. He hand paints the carved wood frame with artisanal passion with in the canvas with patience and giving the effect that the painting is already framed. This piece is signed by the artist lower right and on verso and it comes with hanging wire on the back ready to be displayed.
