"White Horse", My Latest













I had so much fun painting this white horse. I used a very limited palette of only Underpainting White, Titanium White, Ultramarine blue, Cadmium Red, Ivory Black and Yellow Ochre. I loved getting a lot of texture in the background and using a gallery wrapped canvas. It's nice to do something different for a change. I love painting portraits but this is fun too. I'll be doing more of these! Let me know what you think.

Isabella, My latest portrait

My latest portrait is of Isabella Gray, a very happy and energetic little girl. I was really looking forward to painting this one because she is just so cute! I love the monogram on her dress and the contrast of the pinks in her bow and dress with the greens and yellows of the background. I'm pretty sure I captured her personality and confidence! Her parents were thrilled to get it.
