May so far..

May is looking to be a busy and enjoyable month, having started off with two relaxed photoshoots.  The first was with a lovely three year old Arabian filly who has just the right look to be a model for future paintings. It was a pleasure to photograph this filly who was very relaxed and happy to show off! It really does have to be sunny to fully appreciate the appeal of black horses and luckily the Great British weather was obliging!

The next subject to be photographed was a very inquisitive two week old Arabian colt and this was a very relaxed and enjoyable affair which reminded me that foals are definitely good for the soul!

Work in Progress III

It's time to feature another painting currently in progress. Now is the turn for a painting featuring not a grey but a glorious chestnut! The model for this painting is the colt Versailes (Vervaldee x Pashonate) who has proved to be a fabulous inspiration.

Arabian Gold II -- 24" x 18" Oil on canvas

 This painting is the second in a series of three and accordingly, the second most progressed. There will still be a few more layers on this painting to further build up the contrast and depth before it is finished. Looking forward to finishing it and having some prints made!
