Thank you for visiting my blog. I love to paint outdoors. In recent months I have joined a portrait painting group that meets weekly. I have fallen in love with portraits. So I will be blogging not only about plein air adventures and events, but also my new obsession with portraits.

You can see my photo reference in this shot. I changed it up a little, removing that rodeo wave and adding a hat. I also changed the background to soften the effects. HOPe you like it!
I like the how you changed the painting. The light and shadows, the way his head is turned, I can see his strength and dignity. Soft background makes your figures pop and I can hear the water lap his legs. Awesome....that flu must have given you super natural strength to paint all these horses. I look forward to seeing a new one.
