Pastel painting of my girl "Dymond"

Thank you

I just love that girl. When I got her she had almost no personality, no-one ever bothered to build a bond with her. She has stellar blood lines and was used solely as a foal making machine.

I have to say, she just BLOSSOMED having her own human fawn over her. She is so funny. We are so close, I swear she tells me what she wants and how she feels about things. Of course not in words (thank god or I'd never hear the end of what she has to say...lol) but her body language and eyes.

Its amazing what a little love and care and mutual respect and trust can accomplish. Especially with a prey animal, whose trust and respect has to be earned and maintained. Love alone doesn't cut it.

Yeah, I can go on and on about her, LOL. She was a lifelong dream come true for me.
We learned together. We just match

Thanks I think it came out wonderful. I like how the pastel make it look so soft and muted.

I put it behind non glare glass, to protect the pastel medium.
