STS Painting Month - it's May- post your in progress photos here!

Ana wrote:: Anette, your Hagerman horses are brilliant! I love how thoroughly you researched horses, zebras, and donkeys' colorations to develop this pattern. The color scheme looks very convincing, and the paintwork is lovely! Thank you for sharing all the information with us and showing your fantastic work!

Thank you Anna! glad you enjoyed reading and seeing all this.

Glad that you found it interesting Roger! By the way that's a colour I never use Wink

Very very interresting explanations and pics Annette cheers

thank you for this Very Happy

the Hagermans look great and it was fun to read all about your research. Sounds like a lot of fun to dive into and to create something physical out of words on paper! cheers

I'm not a 100% sure I will finish in time. The paint is a slow drying paint so I have to be careful when I want to apply a layer that I do not want to blend into the previous one. I did what to take a pretty outside picture this afternoon because of the nice weather.

Even unfinished, it is already beautiful Very Happy

It's already looking great, A-J!! cheers

I won't finish on time this year, I'm afraid! My energy levels this month were about half of my usual, so I didn't paint as much as I wished. But I got the resculpting done and the first two layers of paint Smile
