Watering and Currying

Slowed down to a four-beat walking gait and headed back to the stable for water and grooming.

Great ride.

Dotty I am so in love with this!! I love everything about it! Love those swirls, the patterns... the greens.... everything.
I know you need a bit of rest, but I am ready for your next "ride". Ha ha ha ha ;) Happy creative day to you my friend!

Sheila, thanks so much. Everything about this ride was a joy to me, and I'm delighted that the joy shines through to you. I'm already on my saddle covering ground with the next ride …

Great painting! Love the addition of the pastel and the paint and the lines - love it all - the transparency draws me in and I want to explore all the layers. Two thumbs up Dotty - paint another!!

Janet, thanks for your specific feedback re pastel, paint, line, transparency, and layers! And thanks for the encouragement to paint another—I'm hoping to keep the energy that fueled this painting kindled for another run.

Just makes me happy! Love how you kept the blues but added the touch of burnt orange?.

Thanks, Carol. I love that a painting that had me feeling happy in the creating has others feeling happy in the viewing, yourself included : )
