As a boy I was always fascinated by horses. In my youth in Wisconsin I was lucky enough to be a member of a riding club and to have friends who had horse stables on their farms and who let me ride as often as I wanted. I became a genuine horse lover. I admired their strength, their vitality and their independent spirit. I dreamt of some day when I was older having my own horse. That was an unrealized dream and at my age it will probably never be fulfilled. At least there is joy in still being able to paint them. I found this exemplary aribic specimen in Google Images and I could not resist the temptation to interpret it in pastel. I enjoyed doing it immensely and I once again felt like a boy in Wisconsin.
