Buckskins, Grey's, and Blacks

 After NaMoPaiMo was done, I lasted about two weeks before I started painting again 😂. I selected four horses to paint:

These guys will be a bloody shoulder Arabian (the mare) and a black (the filly)

The mare is the only one I have finished so far, I’ll add pictures of the further down.

And these two are in the process of becoming sooty buckskin Connemara ponies! I’m going to keep one and sell one.

I found a bunch of reference pictures for them, sooty buckskins are SO pretty!

Looking up reference pictures has got to be one of my favorite parts of painting! 

Here is my progress on the little twin ponies:

I forgot to take pictures of the foal, but she is just in her base coat black right now 
Here is what I’m aiming for:

And now for the one I finished! First I found way more reference pictures than I needed, but the bloody shoulder Arabians are just so beautiful!

There are so many different kinds!

Some aren’t even on the shoulder!

I decided to do a medium sized one. 
I know she’s a bit heavy and large-boned to be an Arabian, but it’s not like I’m planning on showing her, so I don’t mind.

And that’s it for today! Next I’ll show you my first RioRondo order and my first western show halter💕
