The Painting: I began layer on this last week. I saw flowers in pots and ladies dancing, but most of my buyers look for my equine art…so last night I began working to find the painted ponies… voila here they are. I truly enjoy the movement of colors in this new signature style and so far it has been exceedingly popular.

25 X 35 Oil on Canvas
Commissioned for Private Collection
Another big commission has been completed and the book is out! I have only read one chapter (and I know the ending), but I still want to read the entire story.
This commission was a joy to produce from start to finish. Dan knew exactly what he wanted regarding the characters’ images, and I had a solid vision for the background (letting the tree play a prominent role, as it does in the book). We are working on a book signing in Morgan Mill and Dan is hosting an Open House to showcase the painting, his book and the home he has so diligently remodeled during this process.
In addition, I am starting on another cover for him. The sequel novel is entitled “Finding Rosie” and the cover will depict a cold snowy environment with a red headed teenager on a paint pony. You’ll have to read the book to find out the details!
To learn a little more about Dan and/or to order your copy of the book, visit his website HERE.

Includes Shipping and Handing
I’m eager to start the next book cover but the weather has not cooperated. Well, that isn’t actually true. I HAVE gotten LOTS of snow images lately (and made my 3rd snowman of the season). But I still need to get my image of the boy-wrapped-in-buffalo-robe-on-a paint-pony. As SOON as the weather looks cooperative and I can get to Nemo to borrow the buffalo hide, we’ll get this underway. I have several paint ponies available – including Tuffy. But I don’t know how cooperative he’ll be ridden bareback – he’s just the right image, though. Little and shaggy and hard as a rock and a nicely patterned paint. The model I have in mind is a 13 year old girl who could probably ride anything we put her on. I would like to test Tuffy first, though…not only to see if he’ll cooperate bareback, but also to see how he’ll handle the smell of a buffalo hide. Might be worth keeping the movie camera handy…

‘FULL CIRCLE’
24 x 36″ Oil on Canvas
I am not on their website yet, but Mirada Fine Art of Colorado will be representing my work.
I am truly honored to be apart of this fabulous new gallery. Come spring, Terry and I will make a trip to visit and see my work hanging, and hopefully later this year you can visit me at a show of my work at Mirada Fine Art near Denver. I also want to thank Kimberly Conrad for the fabulous referral to the Gallery.
Contact Steve at Mirada Fine Art, Colorado to purchase this painting.

The Painting: This was the piece I worked on during the documentary. As I finished it I knew it needed to be gallery bound, but did not realize I would be hearing from a wonderful gallery just outside of Denver.
Between the catch up days, I will do a few more pieces to send them and hope to visit there in the next few months.

The composition of this painting is inspired by Frederick Remington’s “A Figure of the Night – The Sentinel”. 
These are the woods behind my house. To get the feeling of cold moonlight, like Remington’s painting, I need to use more Viridian – a color that goes a long, long way. If I glaze the painting with a Viridian tint, I may get there….
I shall continue the snow series. Maybe by Spring I will understand the nature and color of WHITE!

Well, I think I am about finished with this piece, and I am frustrated with photographing it. The colors are very rich and vibrant and it’s nearly impossible to get that across on a computer screen.
Yesterday’s record
snowfall is half melted and I expect the rest will disappear today since the temperature is supposed to be in the 50’s. What a mushy, muddy mess we have left behind. I went walking in the woods yesterday morning before it warmed up and got some lovely photos for the background of the next book cover. Thanks, Mother Nature!

It was a year ago Tuesday that Leo was born – hard to believe that tiny, sleek baby is the same horse as the fuzzy young man out in my paddock today! On Monday I was over at a nearby farm to take some photos of some of this year’s babies, and one always forgets just how tiny they are in those early days. Leo and Spider look small to me because the two-year-old Gracie is so tall and leggy…but they’re nothing like the new little ones!
I’ve been working on commissions and larger paintings this week, so I thought today I was due a smaller, looser one. I was flipping through some of the reference photos I’ve got printed out, and came across this one of Leo when he was still tiny! This painting is 8 x 6 oil on shellacked masonite.
And now a couple of photos of Leo as he is today – one of him hamming it up, and another of him playing ‘fighting stallions’ with his buddy. These two have a long way to go before they can match the prowess of those that have battled before in these paddocks! And interestingly, the most noteworthy may very well have been a mare. Rest assured Gladzilla will never be forgotten around here.

Let’s face it, shiny horses are more fun to paint than shaggy ones – at least for me. But all my “models” are really shaggy right now. And with the exception of a few tufts of rye grass, there’s no green grass to be seen, either. Winter is in full swing – and the rainy background has returned to Texas. A slight drop in temperature will turn the drizzle to ice and/or snow. I welcome the moisture still, but am missing the sun. THIS IS TEXAS!!!! It’s supposed to be sunny! There’s just no pleasing us, is there????? At least my garden’s winter greens are doing REALLY well – we eat fresh spinach and Swiss chard nearly every day. And this Spring (number 3 since planting) we get to EAT asparagus instead of watch it grow into ferns. SO much to look forward to….
2 Peter 3:12
as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat.

Keeping with the warm, tho greenish light, here’s another attempt at a cold winter scene. All I need is an very cold, redheaded boy wrapped in a buffalo robe riding this horse, and we’re ready for the next book cover….I’m not positive about the warm sky, though. I think the next one I will paint as a monotone using mostly Ultramarine with a hint of blue violet and viridian. That is called an “analogous color palette” – where all colors are close to one another on the color wheel.
Song of Solomon 2:11
See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone.

When I posted this the first time, I showed a black and white of the first photo instead of the color version. Doing that helps me to judge the composition better without distraction from colors.
The second photo is the head beginning to take shape and the third has background added.
The orange base was becoming an aggravation, so I decided to paint over it before I finished the horse’s body.
At this stage I am about 80% complete – still need to add the”sparkle”. I prefer to do that on a sunny day, simply because the light in the studio is better. And since today is dark, cold and dreary, I may wait….

The Painting: Mountain Pony named for the deep caramel browns washing through the background and the horse. Holbein Duo Oils are so buttery that painting is a joy. Added colors of Indian Yellow, Cream, Madder and touches of blues, which are hard to see in this photo… finish it off as a thickly painted oil with ridges of dimension and color.

My friend Tessa has 4 dogs – and one of them is this goofball Golden Retriever that picks up anything laying around loose and “retrieves” it to whoever is handy to take it from him. One time when I was over there to take pictures of her horses (I am ALWAYS taking pictures of her horses!), the dog came running at me with a rag – and with great delight he offered it to me. I ignored him and he promptly dove into the pond that was close by, dropped it, and immediately lost sight of it. I have never laughed so hard watching that silly dog dive
under muddy water trying to retrieve his rag! Like every Golden I have ever known, the world is his simple playground and we are the audience – enjoying his portrayal of a wonderful, happy life. People could learn from Golden Retrievers.

It’s spring and the cows are hungry after a long winter (I’m pretending, all right!?). I’ve never seen them eat bluebonnets, but they must, because the flowers rarely thrive in pastures with cows in them. So the answer is YES!
For over 10 years we’ve had bluebonnets growing down our driveway that bisects the pasture. The grassy area on both sides are solid flowers in some areas, and I can see tiny little plantlets emerging all winter – and in the pasture on the other side of the fence, too. But they never blossom there – so either they get trampled or eaten, and I suspect the latter.
I know many flowers are edible for humans – I have personally eaten nasturtiums, violas and pansies. I cannot, however, find bluebonnets (lupines) on a list. Although I have been known to sample wild things and pray for the best, I think I’ll pass the bluebonnets….

The is the same painting I posted a month ago, but I have reworked it because I didn’t like the background – it just didn’t work. I like it a LOT better now. I have several more that may get the same treatment.
I am in down time now – closet cleaning, planning the garden, food storing and making sausage (from a wild pig brought to me by a friend). So I am starting small projects that I know I can finish – good for moral!
Genesis 2:9
And the LORD God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

Caught Dandy rolling in the grass this past summer – she sure enjoyed getting that itchy spot scratched. You cannot watch a horse stick all four legs in the air and not laugh. It’s impossible. Once fatty PJ got stuck momentarily upsidedown and I thought I was going to laugh my guts out!
Had another saddling experience with Dandy today, and like I expected, we had a bit more attitude. No real bucking, just aggravating kicks at me as I made her run around the round pen, change direction and speed up and slow down. We both were pretty pooped after 20 minutes, but the results were great. This time I left the halter on and tied the lead rope to the saddle horn – just tight enough to prevent her from lowering her head to eat. THAT made her mad at first, but then she paid attention to me.
I never let my horses graze when they are tacked up – it shows them that I am the one in charge, not them. But don’t worry, they get rewarded later – after they have stood patiently tied for 30 minutes.
Consistency is the key to training a horse AND raising children. Both depend on rules that they can rely on, and it’s not cruel to enforce them – fairly. I have found that the best way to train horses and children (and even husbands) is to make good behavior easier than bad behavior. This does NOT mean I don’t believe in corporal punishment – if a horse bites or kicks me, they get it back from me twice as bad. A lot of people make the mistake of treating a horse like a dog, and I can attest that that never works. Most horses need a leader and respond best to someone who acts and behaves bossier than them. That doesn’t mean you have to have an alpha personality to be a good horseman, but it helps….
Proverbs 14:26
He who fears the LORD has a secure fortress, and for his children it will be a refuge.
