Farm Animal Murals and Life Sized Horse Paintings by Sue Steiner
Today we had the 2nd Annual Local Artisan Festival at Lehman’s. I added to the farm animal murals by putting the finishing touches to a ewe’s face and began working on the lower part of this section which will include twin lambs, a barn cat and a rooster.
On the day of this filming the local Mennonite churches were quilting in preparation for the MCC Relief Sale in Aug. that takes place in Kidron.

I spent the day today with Jodi Miller, a Columbus based free lance photogragher. She met with me at Hobby Farms Magazine’s request to take photos that will go along with an article featuring my equine and animal art. In the photo above Jodi is taking some photos of me by my Amish Work Horse Hitching Post mural at Lehman’s that I completed last year. If you are in the Kidron area be sure to stop in the Buggy Barn at Lehman’s to see the murals. Jodi also spent time on my farm photographing my horses, farm and home studio. Look for the article in the July/Aug issue!Thank you! Sue Steinerequine and animal artist pet and horse portraits

I was looking over the paintings I’ve done in the last few weeks and thinking of what to do next. I began to think of it as a hunger. What am I yearning for now? Another child’s portrait or a flower, horse, donkey, wildlife? What will satisfy this grumbling inside now? Muted and subdued, serious or colorful, playful and wild? An intricate combination drawing and watercolor that I leave half undone that people seem to like? (Which is fine by me by the way!)* 
Big, small, oil or watercolor? Graphite or color? Am I more hungry for ‘values’ or ‘hues’? Strong shapes or gentle suggestions? Crunchy with lots of texture or smooth as silk? Buttery, comfort or spicy, adventure?
* I had some ‘work in progress’ paintings at my studio to show people considering pet portraits and commissions. Someone came in and bought all my ‘unfinished’ work. Gosh if I had only known that I could of only painted 1/2 way thru and stopped right there!
Oh, so many choices.
I have a couple thing to finish but looking ahead to the next painting. I may ’snack’ on a few things in between or wait for the gourmet meal. I’ll let you know whether it was filling, tasty or not enough!
Take care!

Just stopping for some lunch, made some changes once I had good references to work with.
I think it will be finished this weekend.
