My love for horses was born with me, I also was crazy about Art subject!
I started combining my love for horses with my love of Art, In school i remember any subject we were working on i would ignore it and draw a horse, I soon became the professors favorite kid, he would let everyone do a project while he would let me work on my horses. My work progressed to
painting on canvas, boards, wood etc.. after graduating and getting a degree in Art, until i found the beautiful Model horse hobby, i started painting Model horses 6 years ago, and my work has progressed since a lot, I do look back in time and laugh at things i used to paint. I find myself learning a new concept with every piece i create. I can understand how stressful the hobby can get on everyone, but Iam here to help everyone make there dream horse come alive, offering low prices and sometimes trades. Its a fun hobby after all!
My techniques include a variety of Mediums including Oil, Acrylics, Natural Pigments, Air brushing and Colored Pencils. I also do minimal Prep work on Resins, Extensive prep work on plastics, resculpting Custom plastics and Resins as well as Hairing Model Horses.
My work has won at live shows in the past, and i have lots of happy customers, please scroll down to see some testimonials.
LSQ is a subjective term, when i create a piece, although i had models won, I WILL NOT IMPLY NOR CONSIDER ANY HORSE LSQ. I paint for fun and imperfections can happen. I would like everyone to acknowledge this! Although my horses have placed. Thank you for stopping by and reading :)
