Riders Ready oil painting

16x20

oil painting

This time last year my friend Sharon and I were coming back from delivering art when we decided to stop by the Swan Lake Riding stables where there was a horse show competition. We took lots of photos and this painting was done from one of those photos. I think the girls were waiting to compete. I enjoyed painting this because of the color variations of the horses.

"Male Eastern Bluebird" oil painting

5x7

oil on gessoed board

There are times when I post everything as soon as I paint it and there are times when life happens and some of my art is not posted.  I have had photos that were taken by my friend Karen Dattilio of bluebirds outside her window and so far painted 2 paintings from them and this is the 3rd. I need to find her secret to get these beautiful birds to my feeders.
