Northern Chocolate Queen Posts: 16576 Location: ND	Finished this piece last night. I'd shot the photo over the summer at a mounted shooting & really liked it but it took me a while to find enough free time to decide to tackle drawing it! It took about a week & a half from start to finish to complete this one. Now I think I'll work on one that's a little bit easier! The harness & fancy headstalls on these boys where a challenge to say the least. (13.jpg) Attachments ---------------- 13.jpg (89KB - 270 downloads)

You have such great talent! Thanks :) My dad does leatherwork, he actually just finished my new pair of chinks. I absolutely love looking at quality leather work but it's a skill I don't have! I get lost with all the different tools.....I'm much better off with a set of pencils!

You are just fantastic! I have too!!!!! What sucks is I drew this big (20x30) so I could include all the details but NOWHERE in my house do I have room for it :( So it has to look for a new home & I'll frame myself a small copy.

This had become a problem for me that I didn't used to have until I have had to move into my smaller house. I still have pictures in the closet that haven't been hung. Let me measure and see what I can do and I will get back to you. I also have 3 giclee paintings by Bruce Greene. Would you have any idea how I could go about selling them. They are definately too big for my house. Will get back to you tomorrow.

Angel in a Sorrel Coat Posts: 16030 Location: In a happy place	Well I am afraid it is going to be too big for me too. It is not much smaller than my smallest Bruce Greene. It just makes me sick because I think it is just so beautiful.

It can be cut down a few inches but I doubt that's enough to make a big difference. Going to have to talk hubby into putting an addition on the house for my with a BIG wall!!!

A few inches just might help. When you have a chance let me know those dimensions.

Elite Veteran Posts: 902 Location: Qld Australia	Sara, I have been super snowed under and have not had a chance to really study the pic you are doing for me since you sent it. I get on BWH here and there as 'therapy' lol while I have two or three other things on the go. When I get a spare half hour or so to study the pic I will email you. (Wishful thinking!!!)
