Ricky

This horse has such amazing personality!  Henrich is his real name, but Ricky is how sweet he is!!

Another that is awaiting payment.  If you happen to see him, let me know....there is unfinished business.

Chili

More of those ENORMOUS dogs with hard feet.  Okay I am going to be sneaking in more of my western portraits.  Anything with eyeballs these days.  This is the second of four in a family I have done.  Well, it is the second of the SECOND.  A terrible accident befell the original (earlier in the blog) and this is the redo.  Although the client understood the first one was not my problem, that the work was done and the destruction their fault, there seems to still be some issues with compensation.  That aside, this is a wonderful horse and I don't hold it against him.

Chili, first try

Poor baby met with a few disasters... including a big nasty tear and a bit of spilled... well no telling.  This no longer exists, but this is his first incarnation was supposed to be (and finished ) in time for Valentines.  22x15" charcoal on coffee stained watercolor paper

Peppy

This is a special gift for a good friend. It is pastel pencil on tinted watercolor paper. Started as a black and white charcoal, but I couldn't help getting these amazing tones in.
