two pieces this weekend



Spring is in the air. We had a blizzard (kinda sorta) on Friday,very cold Saturday, and today the sun came out to start melting the snow.
since I was stuck inside, I worked on this small watercolor and ink drawing. It is from a reference photo by Linda Schantz. size is 4x6 on paper.


the next piece started but not finished (and deadline is tomorrow!) is a memorial portrait of one of the mounts from the Ft Riley Honor Guard. He was found dead in the pasture a little while ago. He was a handsome 12 yr old Quarter Horse. His main job was to bring in flowers for the commander's wife. He always had one ear cocked back onto his rider.
