Appaloosa, Cowboy and Snow on the Rocks. Watercolor in Progress by Debbie Flood.

 

 

 

I’ve got a new Watercolor in progress. This is an Appaloosa being ridden through some canyon rocks covered in snow, that has melted and re-froze.

I wanted to keep the same theme of the horse color with the background and this is what came about. Sometimes I have a background planned out, but once I get painting, something else takes over and so I just follow my brush and get lost in the process of creating. I don’t try to be the Boss of my creations and tell them what to do. Things go wrong with the painting when I do that.

The background rocks are from a bunch of rocks that I photographed in Prescott, Arizona.  I loved the shapes of them and they work well for this background.

Enjoy.
