Paint Party Friday - Blue Eyed Foal



Welcome to Paint Party Friday! This is a blue eyed foal inspired by a photo that my sister-in-law took on her horse farm. It didn't occur to me that there were blue eyed foals, what a darling. It is an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") on canvas in Winsor Newton acrylics.

I never knew there were blue eyed foals, I wonder if they are blue when young then turn colour as they get older like puppies or kittens,,,beautiful painting!

This is gorgeous. I understand ATCs to be that size and ACEOs to be the size of a normal playing card.
Anyway should you do prints to swap. I will be willing to swap two of my haiku fridge magnets with you: my 2019 swaps

Email me using one of these 2

Gillena they are the same size, ATCs are traded. ACEOs are 'art card originals and editions' usually sold.

cute job on your foal! Glad to read about your surgery going well and interesting that your brother raises bees. We have a local couple here in the mountains that sell their honey at a stand out on the hwy coming up the mountain.

I am already smitten by horses and now you show me a blue eyed foal? :) I didn't know of them. Your painting of the little one is so sweet! I would not have thought of using a blue background.
