These are two watercolor commissions I have recently finished. They are 11" x 14"" and 11" x 15", respectively. The are watercolour on paper.

My blog has high res. pictures of them: http://horseandpetportraits.blogspot.com/

Thomasin,

I had missed this since I haven

What a surprise - this is such a different style from you than I have seen on the forum until now. So glad to hear you are fulfilling commissions - the horse portraits on your blog are all lovely - especially the white Arabian.

Thank-you Carlos and Heidi. It is a nice break to do watercolour commissions, although I am ready to work more on oils again. Doing the watercolours helps me see the oils in a fresh way (helps me forget old and irritating habits), and it is a good exercise to have to keep the white of the paper rather than relying on adding white at the end of painting in oils - helps to keep me from overworking things.

I'm surprised too, they are so different from the ones I've seen. They are great too!
