This is my new favourite painting . I fell in love with the image I used as my reference from the amazingly generous photographer Karen Broemmelsick. I was one of a few who sponsored her to visit Spain, to photograph the beautiful horses there on a planned workshop, a couple of months ago. The image I used was cut off at the ears a little, so I gave him ears and a crest on his neck. I also played with the colours to create a more dramatic feel to the painting.
