Finally....


I am able to finally show the finished product of Street Sense....Things have been a little crazy around here lately. Haven't had time to paint any of my four new paintings. As you know, there was a little bit of an ice storm here in Kentucky a week ago, and then a big wind storm that took care of the rest of the weakened trees.

Anyway...here is the completed piece!

All trophies and roses are done! It was such a pleasure to do and I am pleased with how he turned out.
As for the ice storm, I finally got the chance to get to see Keeneland in some real snow! I've always tried to get out there when there was some, but it was always gone or I was working and never got any. But, there was plenty this time!



Somehow this guy doesn't look too happy!

It's probably really because no one asked *him* to be on the show, "Jockeys"! On a more serious note, the portrait looks great, Rickelle!

Thanks Linda! From what I've heard, he shouldn't be too disappointed...most jockeys don't like it! I've really enjoyed watching your painting progressions and seeing the baby photos!
