We'll Ride Them Someday

The results of another photography test day.

This time I was in Wicken Fen and most of my photos are of the semi-wild horses that can be found here.

Here's the link the the gallery (the first 6 are from this shoot) - http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/myshot/gallery/363200#/gallery/1233793/

Here's my favourite photo of the day - it wasn't the best composition wise but I loved the horses unusual body position too much.

Day Twenty Nine: Painting a life size Acrylic horse!

Sooooorry for the long absence - I've doing intermittent little bits of art but nothing post worthy due to lack of time.

But here's some art! Recently, I've spent a lot of time working as part of the group of artists in the 'Horse About Newmarket' project; each artist had to design as completely their design on an acrylic horse.

It was great fun and my horse is called: Mystiko and on it you can see all sorts of mystical themed symbols including tarot cards, palmistry, phrenology and a constellation.

Here's it when I'd just finished painting it (with acrylic paints).


With some of the other horses about to get sprayed with car body spray . .
