While I do own an old grey mare, a lovely little Welsh Pony, I also believe that since I am now well into the senior citizen category, I am entitled to that label as well.
If you are intrigued or touched by any of my artwork, it is the animals that have been my companions and friends throughout my life who should receive all of the credit for that.
Something new does come along often enough to keep me humble. The last thing was a suggestion that a carousel horse would be really nice for a grand-daughter's room, since she loves horses. I've always been a carousel "aficionado" and in fact had a small collection of porcelain carousel horses and have always thought a real, full sized carousel horse would be wonderful in my living room along with the wall art. This piece was the result, 16 x 20 (framed) on bristol, with the horse done in graphite and the trappings done in CP. There are things I would change of course but the grand-daughter was thrilled ... love to do things for youngsters!
I rather think two small companion pieces, maybe head studies, might work as the next gift.
