Westie

This painting is of Westie and is going to be quite big at 24x20" and I've really been looking forward to it!! I absolutely love doing full body paintings of horses like these so it's always great to have one to do. I've painted the background as a grass green to hint towards the fact that Westie is in a field and as with the shadow, I will make the edges around the hooves rough to make it look as though Westie is stood in grass. I did try putting in a few bits of grass in the foreground but didn't like how it was looking so have stuck with it as is.
