"Power" - pastel on velour paper

"I have loved and drawn animals since I was big enough to hold a crayon.  I discovered pastels about four years ago, fell in love and a new world opened up for me.  Horses are a favorite subject.  The dichotomy of their gentleness in contrast with their power is a source of wonder.  In this painting I sought to capture the explosive power horses are capable of.  I made this guy a "blood bay" color and set him on a fiery background to evoke a sense of excitement as well as power."
