In the Studio - Spots and Sparkles

I've just realized I haven't done a post here in over a month. August ended up being a really busy for me, especially since I managed to do a trip to see the eclipse, but hopefully I'll have a bit more time to work on horses now.

Hopefully I'll also have some more substantial posts finished soon, but for now, here's a quick update on the two Truffles I'm painting:

Dapple Bay Truffle

 

Today I wanted to share the first artist's proof Truffle, done in dappled bay with a blaze and left hind sock. He was done in airbrushed and hand painted acrylics with just a little bit of colored pencil for some of the details. The removable base was finished using a variety of materials, including sand, flocking, and static grass. The base also has a suede leather bottom to prevent it from scratching surfaces.

He is available for offers until Sunday night on MH$P here.
