I was blown away by this painting. You make beautiful art. I don't believe I have ever been to your blog before, but I really enjoy what I see. Your rocking horses are gorgeous. Thank you so much for joining the IA challenge this week.

Great use of colours!

These are lovely, like the racing pose and Mr. Bear is going to need a cup of tea after this excitement.

LOvely painting. It's been interesting to see so many illustrations on PPF (it's an art form I've not thought much about before, but is sooo rich!).

This is wonderful. You have such a gift for these kinds of scenes. And you have brought back memories for me, I had a toy horse when I was very small, and I must have won a thousand races in my mind on that pony.

these are wonderful!
i think i would find it quite challenging to paint one person behind the other like this. You did a wonderful presentation.

These are both beautiful! Could see them easily in a pretty children's book filled with lavish watercolors. Also, I love how you combined the I.A. and I.F. challenges. I sometimes combine the challenges and their themes too, it's very fun! Thanks for posting this great stuff (-:
