Bridled

oil on panel
6"x5.5"

This close up view of a horse's face was difficult to paint, to put it mildly.  It was a challenge to have it work spatially without showing the entire structure of the head.   I do like this extreme close-up and searching view though.

  3. Well done! I love the way you cropped in, and built up the contours of his/her face.

  4. Beautiful planes; succeeds as representational and abstract!
