Today we wished a very important lady a ‘happy birthday’Sam lives at the yard where my ponies are kept. At the yard is a very old pony, who is very special to us all, and to so many people in years gone by. Tucson has to be pushing 40 years of age, and is super cute. He adores Sam as much as she adores him. I decided to paint our cute yard mascot to make into a birthday card. You can beat the old ponies, I bet he has many tales to tell.

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.
What a wonderful name and what a wonderous image-his personality just shines through! 🙂
