“Morning Ride” (for Advent season)
Pencil, Pastel, and Watercolor
2023
This is one of four-in-a-series, small horse paintings I’ll be “releasing” (what a pretentious term…..as though I’m Beyonce. Should I say “Dropping”?) during the coming week. All small snowy-horsey paintings. Someday, I supppose I’ll get around to painting a man with his horse, but (thus far) none of them have interested me.
As ever?…..this is a terrible scan. I may just have to buckle down and cough up 800 bucks for an expensive scanner that can handle pastels and oil pencils. My problem (And this is a patently old person’s problem) is that I HAVE the money, but I don’t WANT another bigass appliance demanding desk or counter space just as I’m trying to downsize.
That said/whined? I like this painting. Christmas, anyone?……..
And, pleasepleaseplease…..will folks stop sending me links to Michael Martin Murphy’s song “Wildfire”? I already lived through it in 1975……….I KNOW it…..Here’s the deeply-icky video…
