Limited Surveillance (2017)Oil painting by Emma Cownie

I was struck by this image of a Jack Russell, obediently and diligently keeping guard of it's master's house, sitting on the window sill to watch, through the bay window, people passing by.
Then I realized that there was a great bushy hedge in his way and he couldn't see much of the outside street.
He only had this little gap in which to view people walking by, he had very limited surveillance opportunity. He was trying to make do with what he had.
