Day 7 - Mickey



"Mickey" 4x6 oil 
By Renee Brennan

Day 7 - of the 30/30 Challenge is Mickey.
He is an American Paint horse and is stall mate with
Slick.  I painted him yesterday and was not very happy with how it was going.
It seems to me that painting on the smaller panels are more difficult to get the details in, especially the eyes....also my tiny brush had seen better days.
So today I got a new brush, flipped the reference photo and the painting upside down and finished him...I need to remember that little trick more often!

Day 4 - Slick

"Slick"  4x6 Oil
by Renee Brennan

Day 4 of the 30/30 Challenge is an American Paint horse named Slick 
who belongs to my niece.  He is a beautiful animal and is 15.2 hands tall.

I think this painting needs a little bit more work in a few spots, but overall
 ok especially since it is the first horse I painted since 6th grade a hundred years ago!
