Let's go to the Races!

"Don's Racehorses"  watercolor   12"x28"

Last year I painted "Don's Racehorses" as a commission for a High School pal. I must admit I was a bit nervous about painting horses as I had never done it before but ended up really having fun doing it. It was great visiting with him after all these years! Thanks Don!

    You had never painted horses before??? Amazing!! This is so very well done, and I must say it does not look like it was easy.
