I would like to do a series of paintings showing the sweet love and trust that a human can have with a horse. I am looking for exceptionally endearing photos of humans with their horses. Children too. I prefer close up head shots but can do full body shots. This is not a contest. If you like my work you can talk to me about purchase, but mostly what I want is for anyone who submits a photo for a portrait, that I have their permission to paint them, and to reproduce it for sale , if the work is of the appropriate quality.
Here is one of Endiku with one of her ponies. I think this would make a lovely portrait
and this one of Katie with her now gone Hugo is another example of the kind of love and trust I want to try and capture
so, if you have one that you think is what I am looking for, go ahead and submit. I have some that I have already chosen and will contact the persons for permission if they end up being painted.
This is a picture of my mare before she was mine .. her breeder sent this to me and I think it is absolutely precious and the very picture of Charm's personality. She is soooo precious.
I prefer all the uncropped versions, and I can safely say that my favourite is the first one - it's so cheeky yet loving, and you've capture both of their facial expressions perfectly.
Here is one of Rodeo and my step daughter the weekend we moved him home. I sooo wish I had had my camera, and not my phone for this, as I think it could have been an incredible moment captured!
Tried making it bigger, just made everything blurry
tinylily, those drawings are magnificent! I'm sure you hear that all the time, but wow!! I'd love to get a drawing of Henry and I, and would love to pay you for it and send it to me if that's at all possible! This is my favorite picture of my goober and I that my boyfriend took a few months ago.
I like this one, but it is bit overworked. I got the pony too dark, so in order to lighten it, I had to make the girl's hair even darker. And, the face is not a super great likeness, but I like the overall feel , and love the composition.
Well, due to being overworked, I didn't quite get your face as light and soft as it is, but your eyelashes were so graceful in the photo, and your long , elegant arms (I think I got them perfect!) I even liked the slump of your back and the curve of you neck. I sound like a romantice here, or something. But I love "lines" and that is what attracts me to a photo; the lines . Or sometimes , it's the dark/light that is attractive.
I am gld you like this one. It's abotu 11 by 14 inches in real life and took about 5 hours (including the sketch) to complete.
haha, well I wish I could tell you that I planned that, but I didn't xD I actually hadnt even realized that someone was taking pictures of me...I generally hate pictures. I guess thats what made this one good though! I wasn't sticking my tounge out at the camera for once
Are you going to be selling it? As of right now I'm beyond broke thanks to a little mule who decided to have the runs and needed another vet checkup, but I might be able to con someone into getting it for me for Christmas.... ;D
Another shot of a a girl with lovely long and elegant arms. The photo did not show any detail of her face and since this site was down last night, I could not access any other photos of her to try and take an educated guess as to what she looks like. in any case, the photo is really endearing, and who doesn't love a donkey?
I photographed the painting on the floor of my living room .
now, looking at this, I can see some small changes that should be made. but the artist is never satisfied.

I saw this and started crying. That picture is so beautiful of my daughter and her beloved Stubbs. Thank you! She will LOVE it! Please let me know what it would take to have that sent to me to put up in my living room.
Tiny these are beautiful! I would love one of these if I ever pick which pictures you could work with. You can have a try of any of my pictures you like..This is a favorite, not sure if you could work with it.
Wish I could see that photo better. I have to have very clear photos to work from. My eyes are gettin' too old to squint that hard to make out your face from that lil' thing.
