Oh, no! The Internet.

Ok, so the title is a little bit exaggerated, lol. Saturday night however, the little antenna thingy for the internet broke, so now, of course, there is no internet. We're hoping to get it replaced, but until then I'm just going to have to stick with the local libraries. I don't really mind though, now that the internet isn't working I'm able to put a little bit more time into my artwork (even if I can't put it up here for you guys to see). The only real inconvenience is that I can't save any more stock on my computer to work on for my photomanipulaitons. That hasn't stopped me though. When the internet was working I saved a TON of stock on my computer to work with, and so now I'll have time to get it done. It's funny how things happen like that isn't it? :)

Some WIP's

Since school is out for the semester I haven't been so busy. Lucky for me that means I can devote more and more time towards my artwork. Here are some pictures of the stuff I've started but are not yet finished. Any constructive criticism is welcome. Thanks!

Gone With the Wind. Watercolor and watercolor pencil.

Roan Sabino paint horse mare. Pastels, acrylic, and pencil

Tulips. Photographed in the front yard with my camera and edited on PSe9.

Mustang Mare. Primed today and ready to paint. This will be painted grulla and sold on ebay when finished.

Reflections: Past Memories (finished). Photomanipulated with Gimp 2.6, PSe9, and my artist tablet.

First Post

Hello all, this is me, Hoofbeats. I am a student artist working towards a double major in both art and equestrian studies. Though I'm still considered a senior in high-school (until the end of this month), I have 18 credits towards my college degree.
   Overall I'm fascinated by anything equine, art, or music, and I love playing around with different techniques and mediums. Some of my favorites are model horse customization with pastels and acrylics, oil painting, and digitally photo-manipulating with my artist tablet. On this blog I plan on sharing my artwork (and occasionally my methods) as well as any upcoming sells items. If you have any questions of comments please feel free to let me know.  :)
