    first approach to horse painting. A picture if a real arabian horse will be merged with the horse paint by Gros

    arabo.jpg
    the palette is made with
    Ivory black
    burnt sienna
    burnt umber
    dark violet
    titanium white
    cadmium yellow

    pictures show you a very early stage. Isn't an easy horse to be balanced

    I've a doubt... Murat horse has to be white but I'm fighting with the colors... what do you think? I continue to paint it white or is better to change

    last update

    Murat looks great....your best representation of him...The horse looks a little bit silver, but you still working on it.

    Looks marvellous. I’d suggest a darker mane, tail and forelock which with darker or differently coloured horse harness, ribbons and of course the horse’s eyes painted in would provide a good contrast to there being too many light colours.

    Cheers
