Picture
In the Test, 16x20, oil, stretched linen, $2200

This chestnut equitation horse reminds me of one I rode in the '90s. He had such a gentle demeanor and perfect, even way of navigating even the most difficult medal courses. 

Picture
Check Your Pace, 16x20, oil, stretched linen, $2200

I feel the energy and excitement in this one. Like being at the end of a round, knowing that you'll be clear after the next, final fence.
Picture
Sovereign, 20x16, oil, stretched linen, $2300

While this black Friesian stallion isn't a hunter/jumper type, I find his conformation and strong presence powerful, yet peaceful. The freedom of him trotting on the beach and the highlights being transparency from the background, make this one seem light and happy.

Picture
Batman, 12x16, oil/acrylic, stretched canvas. $650

This guy looks to me like he's just galloping around the junior jumpers, winning at his job. Bold but careful.
Picture
Frosty, 12x16, oil/acrylic, stretched canvas. $650

I've painted this one a few times and this is my favorite version of him. The kind eye and eager expression draws you in.

Picture
Light Feel, 12x16, oil/acrylic, stretched canvas. $650

The first painting I did in this style. I think he looks like a classic bay equitation horse. Calm and collected, ready and responsive.

Picture
Off the Counter Lead, 12x16, acrylic, stretched canvas. $650

This was a challenge from an artist friend to paint with my left hand. I also used a different technique to create the abstract background. A fun project, and successful one.


Picture
Medal Winner, 16x20, oil on canvas panel. $3400
​
A slightly older painting, brings back memories of my Medal / Maclay days. A rider at my stables recognized the horse I used from the reference photo. I think I'd like to ride him!
Picture
Calgary Tame & Laura Kraut, 12x12 wood panel. $2700

During the 2023 Nations Cup in San Juan Capistrano, CA, I had a booth in the vendor village where I was painting live. I took tons of photos and just loved the kind expression of Calgary Tame walking around the schooling ring before warming up. I think he was second in a big class that weekend!

Picture
Breaking Through, 3'x4' feet, mixed media on hardboard, $4,400
**First painting from my latest series***
I'm so excited about the new, larger-scale paintings I'm working on. They are thick with texture and have abstract backgrounds, which is a fun thing for me -- using big brush strokes, mixing and blending. Then I tighten up the painting with a charcoal drawing and finish by painting the horse with oil paint. "Breaking Through" got it's name for the way I feel about the direction of my creative work!

Taco, 11x11, oil on canvas board, $460
Picture
Kory, 11x11, oil on canvas board, $460
Picture
Alto, 11x11, oil on canvas board, $460
**Purchase all 3 from the "View from Above" series for $1000**
I was the lucky rider above that got to take these photos. And if you follow me on Instagram, you'll see that I post a lot like this in stories. These three all had unique personalities, but were all very sweet and delightful to ride.

Picture
Wiley, 12x12, oil on wood panel, $1050

​He was one of our 100+ foster puppies we've had over the years. Wiley got free roam of the house because he'd just leap over the gates. This smart little dude has a forever family now. 
Picture
Josh, 8x8, oil on wood panel, $580  SOLD

​He belongs to a woman that also has a grey horse. Painting his cotton-ball white fur was a fun with all of it's yellows, blues, and greens. And yes, he was smiling in the real photo too!
Picture
Sammy, 8x8, oil on wood panel, $420

​My friend found Sammy on the street when she left my home one night. We brought him in and cared for him until we figured out who he belonged to. The owner told us he was 19 years old!
Picture
Bloodhound, 6x6, oil on hardboard, $290

One of the trainers at the gym had this dog out front standing in perfect light. I grabbed this shot when he shook his big wiggly neck.
Picture
Foster Pup Ears, 6x6, oil on hardboard, $290

This girl was another one of the foster puppies we've cared for. Her ears were incredibly big for her little body and she was a spunky little one. She was adopted.

Picture
Betty, 6x6, oil on hardboard, $290

The one and only time I tried playing pickleball, miss Betty White was on the court. She smiled for the camera and became my next painting.

Picture
Foster Pup Baby, 6x6, oil on hardboard, $290

​This ​tiny puppy was so sweet, and while he liked to play, he also enjoyed lounging in the sun. While his sibling ran around I took this photo to paint. He was also adopted.
