Waiting

A dog lies with its head lowered toward the viewer, muzzle resting near the bottom edge of the composition, rendered in loose brushstrokes of grey-brown ink with peach and orange washes across the ears, muzzle, and coat. Its front paws extend to the left, and a red-striped fabric or rug edge appears in the lower left corner against the otherwise blank cream ground. A round red seal mark sits near the dog's front legs, with the artist's signature "Weiqi Wang" in the lower right; the work is a Chinese brush painting titled *Waiting*, 2014.
