Horses, donkeys and dogs

WARMBLOOD

Having a veterinary background I well understand what lies beneath the skin and I have tried to transmit the gentle nature of this horse in this painting. Its character shines through and by using layers of pastel the depth of colour is enhanced.

It is completed using soft pastels &  pastel pencils on Artspectrum Colourfix  paper. The sharpened pencils create the detail and the background is blended using polystyrene sticks to give the three-dimensional effect to the completed painting. 

This painting is 15 inch by 11inch - in it's frame it is 22 inch by 18 inch which is the perfect size for any wall.

I have sold a few donkey paintings and following a previous portrait of these two donkeys in winter snow, I decided that a buttercup background might be a nice contrast. I took the reference photo in spring as they live locally to me - it is always good to see them as I drive to Ludlow.

This delightful Cavalier King Charles Spaniel was created in pastel from a photo donated by Kerli Toode through the Facebook group "Photos for Artists" I loved the cheeky expression and could imagine his eyes following me around the room as he waited for his walk (or dinner! )

This stunning image caught my eye and I got approval from the photographer, Javier DeLucar, to use photo as a reference to work from. The sweat on the coat and the expression in his eyes made this very rewarding to create over a period of 30 hours, capturing every detail.
