This is an oil painting, painted on a metalic spray painted board....complicated process that involves a few chemicals. Based on a Friesian horse. Friesian horses originaly come from Holland and beside the Bard, Arabian ( Northern Africa and Arabian penisula) and Andalusian, Lusitano, ( Spain and Portugal) are the original 'crusader's ' horses........

Oh,my gosh that is gorgeous! Gotta love Friesians. He looks so powerful, and yet kind and gentle...

Love the technique too, it makes for an increadible background. Lately it seems like all I’ve been able to find on Elfwood are pics done on some computer painting software or another. It’s good to know that there are still people who paint by hand.

Although this has been said by nearly every commentor to walk the earth, I shall say it again: keep up the good work!

omgah, at the thumbnail I already knew this was based on a Friesian. Your accuracy is amazing. This is absolutely gorgeous! The detail brings such brilliant realism to the piece. I love it.

That looks perfect! How do you do that while you paint by hand?
I live in Holland, so I have seen more than enough Friesian horses. But this is the most beautiful one I ever have seen.
