Tacoma’s Equest Fest was a great success. Thank you to the organizers for a seamless event. Thank you to all the kind people who visited my booth and purchased artwork. While I was painting ‘Sessil’, I had the chance to overhear some chatter about how informational the hour long sessions were. Some people had a hard time choosing between talks! Subjects included ‘Alternative Methods’ for treating one’s horse and ‘Desensitization Techniques’, to name a few. The fashion show must have been a racket as I heard a lot of clapping and laughter.
It took me roughly 3 hours, with a few breaks, to paint Sessil the mare during Equest Fest. She was a mare who I once knew in Ellensburg, Washington on a friend’s farm. She was so beautiful and had a special presence and sweetness about her that comes across in my painting of her. I now have 14″ x 11″ prints available for $50.00.
