Today's Equine Art

I was commissioned to do Paula's ancient Tennessee Walker, King. He is a black horse with a little star and snip, and a very kind, expressive face. It's always fun to watch the work progress, so I took photos as I went along. This is oil pencil on black, 11 x 15".



Here's the outline.



Blocking in some highlights.



Now adding some more color details and highlights.



The finished painting. You can really see the soul in this old man.
