WIP of © "Once Again"

Day three in the continuation of the acrylic painting Once Again. I laid in some background and deeper shadows. I have always liked warm browns coupled with turquoise blues.

I don't have a wip update for you this evening, so instead I thought I'd bring up some of the smalls I have available to get the idea out that these would be great little gifts for the upcoming holidays, who doesn't like that special, one of a kind surprise? For your horse loving spouse, children, family away from home, friends, acquaintances, your barn manager, farrier- the list goes on. These are part of the Summer of 2014 60 series that weren't claimed, and with these, the gift keeps on giving since I donate $8 of each sale to horse rescue efforts. There is some money in the fund waiting to be donated, I'd like to see it grow a bit more to make the money I give go further.  They are all 6x8x1.5 gallery wrap for $68 each + shipping. 
These are going to be posted from earliest to latest, starting with 3 each post. Please feel free to contact me for more info, or to purchase. Thank you!

WIP of © "Once Again"
I did some more work on once again by adding some texture to the canvas. There is fiber paste for the background and a mix of modeling paste, gel and course pumice on the horses head and neck. After it dried all day, I put in my beginning block of color, the shadows with brown. Since I have such a love affair with the golden horses you can easily guess where I'm going with that. I don't know what I'll do next, but whatever it is, will be the next installment of this wip.

WIP of © "Once Again"
I have had such a positive response to the painting titled encore from my rhythm and hooves series which is great. I have felt an urge to do more and this reaction just fuels my creative fire even more, and I have 2 wip with this technique started. This one will be shown as a wip with several photographs to allow you to see it grow and gain life. I think I'll be calling it "Once Again". I hope you enjoy the process. It's being done with acrylics on a 16"x20"x1.5" gallery wrap canvas, and will be available for sale once completed.

© "Swing"
This 11"x14"x1.5" acrylic gallery wrap features a horses head done in my line style, using warm ocher and sienna with reds. I just love those golden colored horses with their flaxen mane and tails, or white. Swing got it's name from how the masking formed a couple lines that looked like a swing set seat soaring up into the air. If you'd like to give Swing a home, let me know, he's offered at $125.00.

© "Encore"

There are 12 acrylic paintings in my "Rhythm and Hooves" set, this piece is a 20"x16"x1.5" gallery wrap acrylic of a golden textured horse with accents of turquoise and teal. I've been thinking of how to approach doing my horse paintings in a similar fashion to my line style, but by a different technique. I was very happy with how it developed, and turned out to be one of my favorites.I named it "Encore" with the intention to see if I liked this new way of creating my horses and if my fans liked it and wanted to see more, I'd be happy to oblige and do this again. It is SOLD, so indeed, I will do more!

© "Duet"
There are 12 acrylic paintings in my "Rhythm and Hooves" set, this piece is a 20"x16"x1.5" gallery wrap acrylic pair of golden horses, male and female, a couple working as a team in a duet. It was this piece that was done first, and was the inspiration to do the music and dance series for my solo show. I was very pleased with how it developed, and besides a couple others, is one of my favorites.
Available through my home studio unless otherwise stated. $500.00 + shipping.
