Pastel of girl and her horse


I painted this today.. pastel, 11"x14" on Kitty Wallis Belgian Linen. Because I photographed it this evening in fluorescent light, the color is wonky. I still need to finish the hands and other details.
I painted it on ustream.tv, but the recordings didn't record properly. There's a 30 minute piece that will play, though. www.ustream.tv/channel/susancarlin

Nifty painting, you may know I love horses, nice job.

I couldn't get the video to play either, maybe they are working on it.

Hi Susan,
I was able to open the last part of the 2nd video, you were finishing up for the day.

That Paint [breed] is a beauty, for a painting. I give it a Blue.

Thank you Jo, Pete, Erika and Karen! I'll try to get a better photo when I'm done with this one. Very sweet subject and you can just feel the love and trust between them, can't you?
