PONIES

 More pastels from my Keenland references.  These ponies come out in the morning and often guide the horses to their starting gate for the races later in the day

KEENLAND RACE

My first racehorse pastel done from my own photo reference that I took at the Keenland Racetrack in Lexington, Kentucky

 

LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY WORKSHOP

I am just back from a wonderful workshop in Lexington, Kentucky.  I never knew how beautiful it is there!  I taught pastels with a great group of students, but another highlight was being taken to Keenland Race track where I was able to take a lot of photo references of horses, riders and racing horses.  I look forward to working on them.

Here are my three 9 x 12 pastel demos
