The new Stubbs?

I first saw Tania Still's work at the Game Fair. It stopped me in my tracks.

I soon discovered she's well known for her paintings of hounds - fox hounds, greyhounds and mink hounds, although she's also turned her hand to beagles and harriers.

Critics have even compared her ability to capture an animal's character with her famous 18th
century predecessor, Stubbs.

She paints on a grand scale, more normally associated with human portraiture.

It's just been announced by her dealer, Alexander Meddowes Fine Art, that she'll be having her first major solo show in Edinburgh this August.

More than 35 of Still's oil paintings will be on view - many 6ft square or larger.

You can also see a selection of her paintings at the CLA Game Fair in July.
