We work from photographs which we may take ourselves. You’ve got to love a horse and rider who come up to our booth at an outdoor show and pose the day they order the mosaic! This horse is all that: sweet, bright, personality plus… and a fassionable bling brow band to boot.

Drop, handpainted kiln-fired oil on porcelain tile, 16 inches x 20 inches, AVAILABLE $4,500 framed

Special thanks to Joshua Walker, photographer, who generously offered his work as resource for this painting. Our largest oil on porcelain tile, eventers will reccognize Rolex KY. We build up the surface – and all those twigs – with thin washes of mineral pigment, firing each layer to fuse it permanently to the tile. An extreme close-up of the face gives you an idea of the intense painting with tiny brushes that produces such a life-like image. In reality, this painted face measures less than an inch tall!
