Watching paint dry!

Well, Blue-Silver is finished and framed. Next project is a little different and hopefully taking me closer to the vision in my head of what I am trying to portray in my work.

Meanwhile, here is where you can buy works and horse up your life. www.redbubble.com/people/hrequineart I am trying to decide whether the word needs another art blog or if it might be more fun and interesting to make this a little wider. Perhaps an insight into the life and times of the artist behind the easel. Or perhaps a little more about how the inspiration for the pieces came to be. For example, "At dusk" here This painting and many of those in my up close and personal collection are  inspired by my evenings in the barn with my horses. The sun is setting and the  light fading. All is quiet and still, just the sounds of horses contentedly munching their hay and dozing. This is very much a horse owner's view. We rarely see our anima...
