The start of a new painting. 24x30 in oil on Claessens #12DP. I've outlined the horse in Conte crayon so that I can play around with the design and get the drawing down very accurately before putting paint on the canvas. I've erased most of the lines I used to place the critical anatomical points by wiping them off with OMS and a paper towel.
Later this week I will work over the outline in thin paint with a bit of Liquin in it, then work with a full color block-in.
