Today whilst searching for something to paint on Sktchy app, I came across this beautiful chestnut horse, I know I have loads of my reference photos, but I just had to paint it, being chestnut may have been a great pull for me, biased I maybe, but I love chestnuts….just like my boy ❤️ I have called it ‘ friend of wisdom’ 9×12 140 lb watercolour
‘Friend of wisdom’ watercolour, 140 lb coldpress 9×12″ Sktchy app inspiration
About REcreate-RebeccaEvansCreate
My name is Rebecca Evans, living in the New Forest I have been inspired to paint the many animals often seen around me. Having ridden since Childhood, painting equines was a natural path to follow.
I use a variety of media, watercolour, oil, charcoal, pastel,inks, plus a few more, infact I will try most things. Choosing the medium to work with can really change the effect of the art, and therefore the character of the animal. Sometimes it is an instant decision, sometimes it is the mood from within me which determines which medium I choose to use.
I never know what might inspire me next, but if it’s hairy, I will be sure to try.

Thanks Snehal, I totally understand, so much to do, I have found it very beneficial in my face studies! It’s kept me motivated, because there is a look to suit everyone….just type in what you are looking for in the search bar, see what comes up…..you would probably find the Facebook page more useful for your flowers, ‘ photos for artist’…I think? or ‘ paint my photo’ 😀
