“Running the Pattern” finished
A snip-it of a new painting finished that will be on display at the Salon International Animal Art Paris 2019 at Hippodrome d’Auteuil from 15-17 Nov 2019 (vernissage Thurs 14 No from 5-10pm). Hope to see you there!
New 100x81 cm oils on linen painting finished and will be on display at the Salon International Animal Art Paris 2019 at Hippodrome d’Auteuil from 15-17 Nov 2019 (vernissage Thurs 14 Nov from 5-10pm). It was inspired by attending the international horse reining competition at Bo Ranch (La Chappelle La Reine), capturing Wimpys Little Chees running the pattern in the new state-of-the-art indoor ring. There was so much movement to play with through color and under the sunlight coming through the roof of the arena that created a magical gold mist trailing the galloping horse that I wanted to capture on canvas.

Excited about the new painting just finished as it was a change in focus…painting a subject in a different high-powered equestrian discipline, Reining, in advance of some exciting upcoming art expositions. This is an 100x73cm oils on linen painting of Wimpys Little Colonel. Thank you Cam Essick for the use of the stunning reference photo capturing the 2009 Quarter Horse Stallion / 2013 NRBC Reserve Champion performing the reining sliding stop. An amazing movement portrayed with an intense splash of color and play on light.
