I wanted to do a painting for the Daily Paintworks 'Reflections' challenge, and I wanted to include a horse. I found an image on MorgueFile I wanted to use, but I also wanted to challenge myself to paint something large. Thsis one is larger for me, typically I don't go larger than 16"x20" in acrylic. I had also bought some new acrylic paint I wanted to try. So, using a 20"x24" deep canvas, four acrylic colors (Australian Sienna, Red Oxide, Prussian Blue and Unbleached Titanium, all from the Derivan Matisse Flow line), and four paint brushes, this is what I came up with. I love the warm colors! He's in the DPW Challenge section this week!
