Can't Reach - SOLD

'Can't Reach' SOLD
4.5 x 6.5 inches watercolor on paper

Spring always means newborn foals to me. Last year when my husband and I were out driving around we saw this field full of mares and foals.This little girl kept trying to scratch her belly and flanks, but couldn't seem to quite reach. I got a few different shots of her attempt. She was so dang cute, and her baby confirmation is already showing that she will be a looker when she grows up. Tomorrow's painting will show her second attempt. :)

    Very cute one and I like the cold shadows against the warm brown colors.

    An interesting view not many artists would choose. You did a great job painting the horse in a good light considering his awkward pose.

    OK ... first impression ... NICE bum!!! And all horse people want a horse with a good hind end. It's the power-house. :)
    Seriously, her coloring is gorgeous. The variations in the depth of intensity are sublime. This really is fabulous, Crystal!!!
