Dusty's portrait is done!

Dusty's portrait was completed and delivered on August 8 to a very happy Amanda! She waited so patiently for the completion. 

Dusty's Portrait

I am working on Dusty's portrait. It is coming along slowly.

Layer upon layer, the colors go on.

Learning to paint horses

I have been volunteering and riding at a wonderful stable, Forward Stride. They have amazing horses that are used for Equine Therapy for disabled riders and riding lessons. It was just a matter of time before I started to attempt to paint them. These are my first attempts.

Blesi and Bear. I ride the lighter one, Blesi for my lessons.

I am hoping to spend more time with my painting and artwork.
