Horse Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, "Buckskin Mare" by Carol Schiff, 8x10.1.5" Oil
I had a request for another horse painting, I have not done many of them, but I also enjoy them. It started with a ride through the valleys of the Blue Ridge Mountains in western North Carolina, where I found several horses grazing. The buckskin was particularly friendly, coming up to the fence to great us and posing for several photographs.
I found it difficult to mix the correct color of this animal, but finally was happy with the results. I used a palette knife in the background of this small oil painting, to create the texture of the grasses in the meadow.

Horse Portrait, "The Mare" 6x8" Daily Painting SOLD
Our neighborhood is not really rural, but we do have horses living in the area.
This one is very friendly and often comes over to greet me as I walk by her pasture. She was even kind enough to pose for a photo.
I am always looking for new subject matter, so I decided to give horses a try. This is my first attempt. Since, I have done one more. I enjoyed painting them, but do have a difficult time getting interesting photos of them. Sometimes, I think becoming a photographer is a prerequisite to becoming an artist. Some would say the trick is to sketch, sketch, sketch to know your subject well and paint from your sketches. A valid point, but I prefer to use my limited time painting, so, I look to all the advantages modern technology has given us to work with.

International Horse, White Horse Portrait, Giclee Print on Wood
I originally painted this piece for a licensing company in Scotland. That was several years ago.

| Purchase one here |
Recently, this giclee print on wood panels has been chosen as set design for a new Netflix series named SOUTHERN COMFORT, which takes place on a ranch.
How exciting!! I don't know, at this time, when the series will be released, but, I will let you know when (and if) I am told.

Horse Portrait, "Big Red" 6x8" Oil, SOLD
I have been trying to expand my horizons by painting new subject matter. This is my second horse painting.
I have to say I did enjoy the challenge. He looked so spirited and I got excited about his red coat against a green background.
It's always fun to stretch a little, try something new. I would like to do more of these, but I think my biggest challenge will be getting interesting reference images to work from. We have plenty of horses in our neighborhood, but they usually run to the other end of the pasture when they see me approach with my trusty camera.
Do you have any special techniques for getting images of animals?

A Collection of Animal and Bird Paintings, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting
I was looking at some of my images and was really surprised to see how many bird and animal paintings I have done. I thought today would be a good day to post a few of my old time favorites.
It is always interesting and educational to review the painting journey that you have been on. I like to line up older paintings, chronologically, which helps me to see the improvements I have made and the ones I would like to make in the future. Always an interesting exercise.
Have a painterly day and thanks for visiting!
