sammy so sweet


watercolor
140lb fabriano
11 x 15

so what if i have two research papers due Friday. i painted this one twice. i am learning so much on the first attempt that I am able to get my colors and the eyes down for the second and hopefully final attempt. the eyes are always so important to any portrait! This is actually Sam, my go to guy. not only for painting but also for riding. He is always so reliable not to mention that pretty face. although, you can't identify the actual horse (although I can) i do believe that i have captured his essence... and he is so sweet.
