One of the things I wanted to try some time, was painting a portrait of an animal in watercolor. Usually I work with pastel, but watercolor seemed like a good challenge.
I was allowed to use a beautiful reference photo of King.
To make things a bit easier, I decided to paint in only sepia - so I didn't have to worry about mixing the right colors. Last week I finished the painting (format: A4).

Thanks Annette, for letting me use the photo of your horse!
Prachtig Brigitte! Dat smaakt naar meer! ;)
ReplyDeleteStunning image! You have captured well the essence of this great animal.
ReplyDeleteMooi hoor! Moet je vaker doen.
ReplyDeleteVoor een eerste keer doe je het al heel mooi.
Just a beautiful portrait, looks stunning in sepia!
ReplyDeleteKnap gedaan en een goede keuze om alleen sepia te nemen als kleur. Ik vind de verhoudingen van het paardenhoofd echt knap, hij/zij kan ieder moment uit het schilderij stappen!!
ReplyDeleteHeel mooi Brigitte!
ReplyDeleteWonderful:)
ReplyDeleteOh my GOODNESS! And this is not your usual medium? Holy moly, you are impressive. Gorgeous!
