Horses on a Winter Afternoon

Horses on a Winter Afternoon

I approached this painting with a bit of trepidation. It’s the first time I’ve tried to draw or paint horses. But they looked so appealing with their thick winter coats and big luminous eyes, I just couldn’t resist giving it a try. 8″ x 11″   Snow flurries filled the air, but it didn’t bother […]
