Many congratulations to Beth Kornegay from Florida on the purchase of "Kampioen, Mintse's Portrait". So glad the painting will be with Friesian enthusiasts!

*Inspirational Quote Alert!*

"Lying in bed would be an altogether perfect and supreme experience if only one had a colored pencil long enough to draw on the ceiling."

Draw, draw, draw..

Notice everything! Because, drawing is a reaction to observing.

Clinic Photos!

Take a look at some great riders at Equuleus farm's Clinic!

Branching out

I signed up today for Fineartamerica.com. Hopefully will be able to sell a few prints through them and eventually eliminate my need for a personal website by April when my hosting expires! Lol!

Welcome!!

Thanks for visiting! I hope to do more work on the blog on Tuesday. Stay tuned!

So i'm very inspired tight now... I went to do a photoshoot at a Dressage Clinic this weekend and was so inspired by all the beautiful horses! I can't wait to continue work on the Artprize painting for this fall. It will be 6'x8' and I am rather excited about it! :)
