Re: New painting

Thank you Su and Mags .
I can't put the tail on until I have decided what if any background .
But can't get the colour I want ( bay) and the legs are not right somehow .

I drew it freehand on the flat not really a good idea .

I agree Mags. I think Muddy is too self critical & that is why she doesn't complete a lot of her art. Even great artists must have been critical of their work , at times, but when they finish I don't think anybody can see the faults they found half way through the painting.

Re: New painting

This is Landseers Shoeing of the Bay Mare one of my favourite pictures.

This is the colour I would like to achieve .

( I might be aiming a bit high here !)

Good heavens Muddy, when you start producing paintings that good, you won't even talk to us, let alone show them to us!

Re: New painting

I think so lots of people don't like Victorian Art as they think it's chocolate boxy and sentimental but I love Landseer and his animals .
