I love painting paint horses there are so many different colors
 and patterns to work with. Hope you like this one. She always
 photographs well.
                                        

At the Rodeo

This painting is canvas but on a hard board. The paint slides on and is really fun to  manipulate. I tried a little looser  technique in the background and tighter in the foreground.
I like to try different surfaces, to give me a challenge and change it up a little. 

Three's Company

Sorrel Bay Gray. I placed the bay  so he could frame the gray. He really
makes the gray horse stand out. The flaxen mane on the sorrel makes the bay
 stand out. Worked out pretty good I think.

She stays close

''She stays close'' to her mother. Rainy was a sheltered foal. She did not have other
playmates until she was weaned. It was a tough transition period for her. This time I remembered to take pictures at my table while I was painting her to kind of  let you see the
progression of my painting process. The sides are also painted so you won't have to frame it.

The Gray Mustang

 Actually I should of named the painting ''Sadie'' because thats what her owners named
her when they adopted her as a mustang. The family had some kids and she was really good with them. I really was trying to capture her character and not put all the focus on her conformational flaws. Sometimes the ones with the flaws turn out to be the best kind. I hope that she had a good life.

Pastel Paint

Before I painted in oils I used to be a pastel artist, but framing and shipping got to be so expensive so I switched.  I tried a little pastel background with this painting. It works great with paint horses.
