I’m delighted to report that another of my illustrations has
appeared on Katherine Walcott’s Rodney’s
Saga blog. Please check out her wonderful articles on barn
and horse-life.
Of the entire series of illustrations, this one is my
favorite. In it I tried to capture that “lighter than air quality” horses get
when they’re being very, very naughty. Even the heaviest steppers somehow turn
into balloons at times and launch themselves off the ground. I myself have been
launched many times. Fortunately for me, my current horse is a bit too heavy and
gentlemanly for sustained launches. All the same, after years of riding
Thoroughbreds, I certainly know how it goes. My best advice, from my old eventing
days, is to hold on tight and kick for all you’re worth! Cheers everyone!
