I love the way you have done the moon on this one and the wonderful job you did on blending the colours. I also really like the way you did the stone pillars for the fence. keep up the great work ^.^

I believe you love horses as much as I do. I see three beautiful ones in the picture of you. I really like the addition of the moon in your creation. It is beautiful against the black sky. I think the horse is just having a little fun. The rider doesn't seem to be too worried about it. Great job as usual!

It looks as if the Palomino is dancing in the silvery light. Rider and horse seem to enjoy the exercise at night. The horse looks happy. The cowboy looks relaxed. The artwork is well composed and framed.

Comment from Browncat


The colors are wonderful and the motion of the horse is especially good. Is the rider a child? He looks like an adult but seems much too small unless the horse is an unusually large breed like a Clydesdale. You say that the cowboy keeps his seat. True according to your painting---but his calmness seems unlikely considering the sudden motion of the horse.

    I was thinking of an Andalusian and small rider, yes... And a good rider can sit very smoothly atop a moving horse -- this is not a buck or a rear... I used to work in the field, and became familiar with Andalusian while manager of actress Bo Derek's farm... Daphne Oberon

SENSORY OVERLOAD ALERT LEVEL 10 !!! WoW !!! You are very very good with horses Daphne. You've shown the spirit of the horse and the synergy between the horse and rider very well. Keep them coming.

This is sweet! I like the enthusiasm of the horse and the cute face. I like how the area below on them on the ground looks like it is covered in gold dust.

A gorgeous birthday card,i think anyone would be honored to receive this! the palomino is beautifully portrayed,i love the sense of movement in the horse while the rider stays comfortably in the saddle.The colors are beautiful and the shading adds to the loveliness of this composition.And the black background really gives this image a wonderful initial impact!

I love this whimsical image. Beautifully constructed, with good use of light and shade and great attention to detail. Lots of fun and movement happening here.

Nice cartoon characters. I especially love the horse, around
shoe area. And love the hat that the young man is wearing.
Also, love the action of the horse.
