We hit the used games places like Gamestop. However even there Game Cube games are almost non-existant. Glad I have my PS2. But it's days for getting games are also numbered.

She is my friend's pinto. Thanks for taking the time to look and comment. I got quite a few comments on the equine art guild site where I posted for the first time -- I am still going to make one more round of corrections-- based on quite a few additional suggestions at the EAG, so I can incorporate your background suggestion as well- and repost her sometime within the next week on wet canvas and EAG, along with the reference photo, this time. I am currently working on a portrait of the sorrel barrel horse. Thanks again for looking, I DO NOT EXPECT YOU TO DO THAT-- I know puter time can really rack up. I am going to put myself on a schedule so as not to spend too much time on the puter. By the way, my brother's boys gave my friend and I a Nintendo Game Cube when he bought them a Wii (sp?) a couple of Christmases ago -- we love Medal of Honor and we have more than twelve years on you!!! I don't know how you can take a break and not get carried away with the game. We don't play so much now -- need more games or a newer system, LOL. I will be visiting here regularly to see what you are up to. Happy Painting and Happy Spring, Angela Hi, Mona — thanks for looking. She is my friend’s pinto.

(actually I spent a couple of hours looking around. A nice community.) I am a member, but Lord only knows what my password is. It has been so long that I wasn't even sure I had become a member until I checked. So anyway couldn't as of yet post a comment there. I hope you don't mind me doing it here. Anyway, I like your horse portrait. I think your handling of the black mane part on the pinto is quite nice. The eyes are excellent! I like the addition of the green in the backgound, though I perhaps would have raised the line up to somewhere between the bottom of the ear and it's current location. So is this one of your horses or perhaps your friends pinto? Hello again Angela, Just a quick note to say I checked out wet canvas. (actually I spent a couple of hours looking around.

He gets fat on hay. We used to have sheep so we had to have good pasture management. At the moment he usually has more than he can consume all growing season, if I don't put him out to early. I will definatley get over to wet canvas to check it out. I've been meaning to look around a bit. Haven't been to the site in years. Great group, just never enough time. Hi Angela,

Wonderful description of Chicory's thoughts. You are good to your pastures. I do half hay and half pasture, even in the summer. Not as good to the pastures as you are. I have a twenty-four year old leopard app gelding that I got when he was nine. I used to ride him every day, but don't ride him right now(my problem, not his). He is enjoying being the boss of his harem -- my friend's two barrel racing mares, a pinto and an appendix sorrel, as well as my three year ago pasture ornament acquisitions, a leopard POA who had a buckskin/gruella baby after she came here who is now going on three years old. Yes, I have posted some on wet canvas. Need to do alot more work though. I have posted the leopard POA in the Feb. monthly challenge and just posted the pinto, but she needed alot of correction which I hope to repost today or tomorrow. Happy painting and spring weather.

He has to wait until the grass grows out a bit more, and also the ground is still too soft. His hooves would tear up the new growth and ruin the pasture. So in order to enjoy it 8 months out of the years, he has to give it time to be flush enough to withstand him. Thats a good question, that perhaps I should have addressed.

A fantastic description of your “conversation”!

Just out of interest, why does he have to wait?
