I am an illustrator at heart so I rarely work with a brush in my hand. I never really "know" when I'm done. It's usually more like I have to give up in order to move onto the next project or gallery work. The business usually doesn't allow me to hold onto to any one painting too long. And once again I'm quite envious that you have a friend with 3 Friesians at your disposal. :) Hey Cynthia, It’s water color pencil.

I am a fan of yours, myself doing a lot of charcoal drawings of horses, and a wanna be oil painter of horses. I love the pastel drawings you do of horses, and to do one myself, well, I'd sure like to have a lesson or two, I do have a wonderful set of pastels I've had (o my) since 1977. Anyway I love all your work, and is the unfinished look a plus for you, or how do you know when to stop.??

Honestly that was a part of the push to get a gallery uptown. My studio space was the entire upstairs (4 bedrooms) of our house. Folks had to traipse through the house and go upstairs. That, and it was so easy to feel guilty for not keeping up on the household chores. Now I just walk out the door, almost guilt free. :D Also Thank You <strong>Ulla, </strong>I did look a little deeper looking into your blog. Once again lovely photos but also lovely artwork. I see you have a bit of that horse crazy girl in you as well. :) Thanks Mel, I remember those days. Honestly that was a part of the push to get a gallery uptown.

Looking forward to seeing the next stage. Haven't been around much of late as its been manic here, but now catching up with your posts. It must be really difficult to get some quiet time for your work, but don't worry about what you look like, especially on a Sunday, you cant be expected to be made up and in best clothes all the time. Thats the problems for us working from home, its so easy to get up and work in your pj's, no make up and get engrossed and then there's a knock at the door...... : ) heya Mona, this is looking great!
