Tonight my husband and I had the honor of walking our younger daughter, Michaela across the basketball court at halftime. She has been nominated for Winter Warming Queen. The game was super exciting - with our team winning at the very end! To top it all off, much of the family went out to dinner afterwards. Super fun!! Earlier in the day, I barely got this painted before having to head out to Michael's basketball games - which we had to leave early to make it to Michaela's event - we actually RAN through the parking lot in our formal clothes! I'm sure we looked ridiculous! I pulled out some reference photos from our civil war reenactment of August 2013 to work from, only I changed the pasture to how it looks today with it's winter color on. The pensive pose of both rider and horse has attracted me since I first took the photo, and it feels SO good to finally get it down in oils! This is painting number 762 in 762 days :)
