So I hiked up to my new favorite spot on campus again today. And again, there were horses around the pond. I decided to just try another sketch of them, and I think these ones came out a lot better. The veiw is actually pretty spectacular, you can see the peaks like are in this picture but if you were to pan to the left you would see another one framing the valley behind. The horses were very gentle and I took a few minutes to talk to and pet them on my way too and from the side of the pond. I'm not sure if they wanted to be painted or not, but after about 15 minutes they got a little restless and 2 of them wandered off. I guess I should have said that there really were about 6 or 7 horses there.
On my way back, I stopped off at the Arboretum. I wanted to see if there was anything of interest there to paint, and if there were any seating areas where I could spread out. As it turns out there are a lot of interesting things to see there. I'll definitely be doing a couple of paintings from there. Get ready to check them out.
