© #60 July 30th 2013 60 Series

The last several paintings in the 60 Series from 2013 were of a friends gorgeous paso fino stallions. The very last one was coupled with flowers, a theme I like to do with my horse paintings. I think it wrapped up the series very well.

© "I Got Hosed at the Carnaval"

Several years back I'd host P2P (photo to painting) contests, they were a lot of fun and a great way to have such a wide array of wonderful photos to choose from to create an interesting themed painting. A repeat idea, paso fino's and water, gave me a great selection to contemplate, but the one of a paso fino stallion being sprayed by a horse and so obviously enjoying it was my pick. The stallions name is in part Carnaval. I named this acrylic "I Got Hosed at the Carnaval".  It has sold.

© "Suits Me to Swim"

It's summer, and it's hot out here in Oklahoma, perfect for swimming, which I do daily if possible in my above ground pool. I have a selection of suits to choose from, but my favorite is a lovely mix of turquoise, magenta purple, ocher, white and blue. The colors inspired me to paint using that palette, and the result was this soothing acrylic with a name that is suggestive of the origin of my inspiration. This painting sold and now resides overseas in New Zealand.
