Fun Horse Designs

I never do the same thing twice, not even on the same horse as you can see by these photos of the north woods themed horse.

The other interesting thing about this horse was that I painted some of the wood grain because there was one dark streak on one side and I wanted a natural but more even look to it.

 If I do more horses like this one I'd use a lighter blue for the small flowers for better contrast. You never really know until you try and find out what you like. The more you paint the more confident you will be with your choices and the better your horses will look. Keep painting, it only gets better.

Dala Horse with Roses

Each side of this horse is quite a bit different because I haven't really painted roses in quite a while so I kept trying different brushes and techniques.

As you can tell these photos were taken outside so it was hard to get the colors true because of all the sunlight bouncing off things. You'll have to take my word for the fact that it really looks much better in person...and when you're not shooting it with someone else's phone.

Also be sure to shoot the photos BEFORE you apply the finish coat. Polyurethane can reflect the flash back and spoil the picture.
