Equestrian Study

gouache on canvas board  This was an experiment with the paint and the canvas board.  I've used gouache before on a smooth surface (like wood) and enjoyed it, but this was the pits.  Couldn't fill in the canvas ridges.  This was also an experiment in painting living things and using perspective.  I know practiced, trained artists can do this a lot better (there are kids that can do it a lot better) but I was just happy to get the angle of the barn and the shape of the horse for now.
