PALETTE KNIFE EQUINE PAINTING

Still working on the portrait of the girl - Got her left hand taken care of and worked a bit more on the background. Her right hand is almost there...I WILL finish it tomorrow...

Meanwhile here is another Palette knife equine painting - I am thrilled with the colors on this Stud Muffin Man - such a soothing palette...

BLACK and WHITE HORSE in PALETTE KNIFE

This boy was meant to be finished and dry for this upcoming Friday's group show at the Local Color Gallery in Raleigh...However, life had other ideas! With everything going on, I put the painting aside and forgot to finish the sides. It would have looked really cool displayed on the wall with my other 12 x 12 horse paintings.

ABSTRACTED CONTEMPORARY HORSE PAINTING

It is amazing how artist's MOJO works and where the inspiration comes from. I found this pretty photo (see bottom of this post) in the image library on wetcavas site. The muscular buttocks spoke to me and the painting was born. Again, I wanted to stick to a very limited color palette. The colors used to create this beauty were: Royal Blue, Indigo, Carmine Lake, Naples Yellow and Naples Yellow Golden and Titanium White.
