Painting - Watercolor On Paper
Description
This original watercolor is the second in my memories series. I got to know this gorgeous black stallion in the mountains and he's very statuesque and even intimidating but I hopped in the fence and took lots of pictures. This pose is something I wanted to do because he has the regal and arrogant appearance that could cause fear in the normal person. I couldn't figure out how to paint him but one night at 1 a.m., I sat straight up in bed and decided he needed to be with a little girl, the picture of innocence. It's all about contrasts. This was part of my "Black Horse" series based on this gorgeous horse that was in Bald Rock, NC at the Equine Center. Bald Rock is an equine subdivision on top of the mountain in NC. This signed original is on 300 lb Arches cold-pressed paper and is unframed. I don't know why I added the snow...it just felt right.

Thanks so much, Colette. This was an interesting one to me and Judy, the same person who bought this also bought the "horse in golden light". She lives on a ranch in Montana and wants me to paint her 6 horses, 3 dogs and 6 cats. I want her life!! :) Colette, I'll be back to your site.

Hi Lil! I just love this. Something is evoked in the sense of beauty and the beast, even perhaps a Scrooge story. It makes me think how everyone no matter how defensive or arrogant or defensive can be tamed with love. It most especially reminds me of some of my street hard students and how I try to be that sounding board for them and also have to check myself to see if I am being judgemental or frustrated with them or am I asking for God's guidance. Everyday there are moments of breakthrough where the intimidating hardened teen becomes the little child in the picture. As though the Horse and the child are one showing two natures. Wow, what an image to conjure all that up in me! FAV and vote. I haven't logged in for a long time, busy with life but hope to get back a little.

I love this. The honesty from both the child & the horse is perfect. Beautiful moment captured.

Lil, he is so gorgeous. animals recognize the vunerability of small children, we had a stallion that would throw an adult but tip toe with a child, you got his expression perfectly, and the snow is a very nice touch.
