Zephyr

Pastel pencil on suede mat board, this 9 x 9 portrait is of Zephyr, a Canadian gelding. The reference was a photo I took at a horse show in 2004

your horses rendered in this medium are spectacular!

Not familiar with this breed but you sure know how to capture the heart of the horse spirit. Beautiful work

Artist Reply: Hi Tahnja If you are interested in finding out more about the National Horse of Canada, do a search on the "Canadian Horse Heritage and Preservation Society" and there is some information and links on their home page. The name of the breed is "The Canadian Horse". Unfortunate, but true! Thanks so much for your kind comments on my art work!

What a beautiful image!! Gorgeous expression and details in the horse's face. The star is awesome, and boy the reins look so real! Just wonderful!!

Artist Reply: Thank you Laura! It didn't hurt to have such a good looking model, either!!
