Racing Horse Painting

This is a painting I did of a racing horse. I started with a charcoal drawing on the canvas (see below).  I used the charcoal to find the shadow shapes, the shadow shapes create a sense of volume. Once the shadow shapes are established it is than simple for me to paint on top focusing on color and paint application. If you are interested in seeing more of my horse paintings please visit equestrian painting blog or to see more general work please visit my painting portfolio website.
