Horse portrait - work in progress scans 5 & 6

A couple more scans of the horse portrait WIP...

Dog and horse portrait - pastel and water colour

Spring has sprung! What a lovely day today...was it sunny where you are? We went for a long walk in the local nature reserve and it was great.
I have finished a couple of pencil drafts for two new commissions but I'll show you those in my next blog post. Here's two new portraits for you to look at first...
One I mentioned before of a dachshund X from a rather old and thus poor photo...I am pleased how it turned out. The second one is a watercolour portrait of a Friesian mare - I really enjoyed painting this beautiful horse.

New dog and horse portraits

I've been busy - no snow in here to stop me from working I guess!
I have finished a pastel portrait of a dog called 'Lissi' (a Border Collie X) and started a horse portrait - also a pastel, of an Arab X gelding. Here's a couple of scans for you to look at!

First equine watercolour painting finished

It's done! I am very pleased with how my very first watercolour has turned out and I am sure there'll be many more to come! I enjoyed painting it and can't wait to start another. However, there are three pastel commissions and a donation that I'll work on first.
