Wonderful series of paintings of these amazing horses. Brilliant work.

As Thea says, brilliant work . I was wondering if the pit ponies of years gone by are depicted, or maybe I missed them?

Thanks for all the really encouraging comments. Yes Norman the pit pony is there called Karl, he is the little grey pony on the right hand side near the bottom. Sadly he is with us no more but did end up his days at the national Coalmining Museum www.ncm.org.uk who gave me tremendous help when I was painting the picture. They still have pit ponies there that can be adopted

Sorry I am spatially dyslexic Karl is on the left hand side of the painting

Thanks for the answer ref. pit ponies, sad to know Karl is no longer with us, but good to kinow someone cares for the ones left. Again, beautiful work Nikki.
