The challenge for this painting was the horse and rider. The woman who posed came across as being very stiff at the photo shoot. So a lot of re-drawing and exaggeration was needed to create action. This was also the first horse I had ever painted so enough said there. Also try finding a photo of horse rearing up. It is not as easy as you would think. This was almost totally made up!
