New Moon


After my last post I headed back to the studio and made a grand dash to the finish for "New Moon".  Sometimes painting is not thoughtful and slow but just letting the paint and brush move across the canvas.  I decided to let go and let it be.  I am truly enjoying this new series of Moon Titled paintings.  This may sound strange but I am a great fan of austerity where my subject is painted with no distractions from backgrounds.  The "Being There as One" makes it interesting for me.  Now that you know I have a weird streak please enjoy the new "Moon" series as they come off the canvas.  Painting this little Paint filly made for, A Painting Day".

Wild Mustang Stallion


This has been a busy Saturday in the studio.  I took on finishing a small Roan horse portrait and finished this one of a Wild Mustang Stallion.  I am not sure what the name will be for this painting.  Names usually come to me as I paint a portrait but this one has a lot of life and wildness and it definitely needs something special.  Thinking of the Mustang and their life of freedom on the plains made for, "A Painting Day".
