work in progress
Arab work in progress
No this isnt an eye test :) Rather a look at how I a painting. When finished this acrylic painting (24" x 32") will be of a black arab horse. Ive drawn him up in white watercolour pencil as this is easier to cover and to see on dark surfaces.
Stay tuned for updates. As yet this painting is untitled expressions of interest in purchasing the finished painting can come to me catherin@animalarthouse.com

Pendragon - pastel in progress
Pendragon
Pendragon is a knadstrapper stallion, I just love all his spots. Its amazing that we think of white animals as white but when you look closely there are lovely pinks and mauves and sometimes a bit of blue mixed in. Im really enjoying being back at the easel. Pendragon is my first pastel on the easel for the year.
14" x 19" pastel for sale. You can reserve this drawing for yourself drop me an email for more details: catherin@animalarthouse.com

Concentration
Concentration
watercolour 11" x 19" $1200.00 enquiries may come to me catherin@animalarthouse.com
I have been invited to exhibit in Arizona next year 2011!!! Which is sooo exciting to be invited to be part of a joint Australian/American equine art exhibiton. Concentration is one of my equine watercolour painting which if it doesnt sell prior to the exhibition I may well decide to take it over with me. But as I'll be working on a whole new body of work I may well leave it at home in favour of something I like much better.
Oh what to take acrylics, watercolour, pastels decisions decisions lol. Now I have to do some research and find some great reference photos to work from.
So, now I need a Arizona Trip fund! Purchasing my art will be a huge help in getting me there. You can help me make this trip in person by either purchasing original artwork or commission a portrait for yourself.
Each sale will help towards funding this trip! Im also looking into grants and sponsorship. Any prospective sponsors out there ???
This will be the most important trip of my artistic career and I'll try to keep you up to date as more information comes from the organisers location, dates etc. And most importantly the other artists.
Cant wait to meet the other artists in person who's work I admire greatly.
Have a great weekend! And thank you all for your support!!
Next thing is to find an Arizona Jar! No make that an Arizona bucket just looked up the cost of airfares. Still I have 18 mths to save up.
