Description
Portrait, in soft pastel, of a rich blood bay horse :) The models name was "Beau", and he had the kindest eye I had seen in a long time. This portrait really showcased his soft gentle personality.
This portrait is one of many that I did on a solid black background, which makes it very striking and helps the horses head stand out and capture your attention.

Thanks Heather! Yes please do get back if you have time. It may not be available in the UK, but I would be interested to know. I often use a French made pastel card by Sennelier (called Royal Sovereign, I think).

This is done on a grey/black paper, smooth surface, which I buy in bulk from a local art store ... I will check the name of it out and get back to you! I always do pastel of smooth surfaced paper as I do not like the texture of a paper to take away from the artwork when doing a portrait like this :)
