Checkin' on the Herd 9x12 oil/linen
Today's effort is perhaps a little more of a finished painting rather than an exercise. Why? Well, a couple of reasons.
1. Mainly because I just wanted to paint this!
2. The gallery is asking for western horse images - so it was a chance to practice some of the edge control in a more completed work, and at the same time meet that obligation.
I allowed a little more time than an hour.. probably more like 2, for this. The objective was to use purposeful brushstrokes,and not get bogged in detail...hard to do on a subject like this because all those little parts of the saddle just scream for attention. I think it is sufficient, what do you say?
