Let there be light.
Posted on
I saw these horses while walking the dog near my village & I loved the autumn sunlight in the photos. Over the years I have read that alot of artists are inspired by light. The feeling of light always seems to be missing from my paintings, but I think I can get a better sense of it using oil paints. It's alot easier putting light on top of dark rather than having to plan ahead & leave the white of the paper with Watercolours.
The horses reminded me of a few years ago when someone dumped a load of these horses in the village. They were running up & down the hill calling to each other, for a few weeks they enjoyed their freedom but it felt like the wild west to all of us humans who had to live along side them.
