One Hot Nite - Newest painting in series


I've just completed painting #12 in my Beautiful Horses of Michigan series! It's good to have a dozen done. Just 25 more to complete by mid-March when they will be on display at the Stallion Expo in East Lansing.

One Hot Nite (Chrome) is a Pinto Saddlebreed ASHA/PtHA tobiano stallion with the sleekest conformation I've ever seen. He was calmly standing in the barn waiting for Holly, his owner, when I first saw him. I love sleek horses, so I was immediately enthralled. Holly lead him out to the round pen, and it was as if a wild fire cracker was ignited. Chrome took off -- flexing his muscles, twisting with glee. He was zooming around the round pen with tremendous dynamic energy. My camera could hardly keep up! I knew I wanted to do an "action-packed" painting of this beautiful stallion.

This painting has a very non-traditional composition, and although it does not picture Chrome's perfect conformation, it does capture his wonderful playfulness, energy and spirit.
