This image is available as a greetings card and postcard on Ebay and Amazon
A Watercolour Portrait Painting of Two Horses. There is a contrast between the dark and the light tones of the two Horses' Heads. The mirror-effect composition creates a symmetry and dynamism.
The style of this Artwork is more illustration than Photo- realism Painting. The tonal areas are left without too much blending creating interesting shapes and movement.
The dark coloured Horse is painted in shades of brown with light Watercolour Washes of blue-grey for the highlights. The lighter Horse is painted using tones of mauve-grey with hints of brown. The brown leather halters echo each other and act as a unifying element.
The paper is un-stretched Daler-Rowney Langton 140lb and the watercolour paints are artists' quality Daler-Rowney and Winsor & Newton.
