As you now, I've recently started exploring the world of painting with soft pastels.
One of the video tutorials I watched was about painting a dog's eye from a reference photo.
Well since I'm a horse person, and I happened to have a good photo of my horse, Star's eye, I thought it only natural that I should try to paint it instead of the dog's eye.
I started it last weekend and it has languished untouched all week. I plan to work on it some more tomorrow. It has a long way to go!
The thing that has struck me most as I've been working on it is how many colors are reflected my mare's black coat. I'm really going to have to get working on her smooth hair tomorrow!
