Jackie O

Honestly, I should be working on the portrait below, but somehow it seems I painted a little picture of my daughters horse.  Meet Jackie O.   Now I will go back to work :)

  1. Aw! That's so sweet and such a good horse portrait. I like your creative compositions, they set your horse paintings apart from the usual kind.

    1. Thanks Katherine! I took this reference photo while my daughter was getting her horse ready to ride, and her horse had that little mischievous look in her eye. Of course I had to get a picture :)

    1. Thank you Judy, I think I was drawn to the old bridle that this horse was wearing, it had so much character. Looked like it had been used on many horses, many rides. I liked that.
