Congratulations Mark, a beautiful painting. The pastel gives it a three dimensional quality particularly around the area of the jaw and neck. How long did it take you?

Thanks Brenda, the painting took me about 14 hours to complete.

For a first horse pastel painting this is just great. Was it a commission? If so they would be well pleased I'm sure.
