Stretch Duel

10x14 watercolor with pastel on paper. This piece has lots of color - and lots of pastel! I wanted it to have a   sketchy look and hopefully show the movement and speed of Thoroughbreds. Hope you like it!

Great energy and movement in this piece! I like the colors, too.

Thanks Theresa! This one was hard to do. I had trouble keeping the tote board in the background abstract and hopefully not to distract from the horses!
