Ok , sorry to mention the "C" word! But it is my busiest time of year and I have already had to turn down three people for christmas orders. Luckily 2 took gift vouchers and one is happy to wait til the new year. Thank you so much!
I am posting a work in progress to let you see how I work!
The work shown this time is a portrait for a lady I met at the Romsey show. It will be of her three horses. She wanted them all depicted together in a group portrait. The mare, the foal and the new horse (to take the pressure off the mare)!
I usually get my subjects drawn out first then once I am happy with them transfer them onto the canvas in correct positions.
I then get a rough background painted in. I like to do this as it gives me the feel of how the finished portrait will look.
The next picture I will post will show the next steps. Come back and see how its getting on later in the week!!
