Watercolour on paper
Signed on the front.
Part of me, being an artist, is searching for wonderful subjects to paint. This even includes getting up at 3am, in order to travel to a friend's farm in the Adelaide hills, to take reference photos of a newborn Clydesdale foal, born the day before. I calculated that the early sun would stream into the stable, and was well rewarded.
I think we all have a soft spot for nature and mother and babies, as this sure adds a warm, soft spot to my heart. These animals are such gentle giants.
As it turns out, my timing was perfect, as a storm blew up out of nowhere, and the sun disappeared. I seem to gravitate towards painting horses and other equestrian connections. I certainly find them wonderful subjects for my paintings.
Although I painted this some time ago, this artwork has never been framed or exhibited. It deserves a loving forever home.
NOTE: The surface has been wax coated with a special preservative/protective cold wax finish - the bonus is that this work does not necessarily need to be framed with glass or perspex. It has a soft sheen to the textured surface,
There is no border allowance for framing, so it can be 'float' mounted, or a small portion can be covered with a mat, without spoiling the composition. The image shown framed is just a suggestion and sizing is approximate.
Unframed, but frames are usually readily available in this size 'off-the-shelf, where frames/decor items are sold.
Shipped flat.
