Frolicking, charcoal horse drawing by Theresa Paden

"Frolicking"

By Theresa Paden

#8 of 50 Horses in 50 Days

16" X 20" charcoal on 140 lb paper

This drawing was given to Jennifer Andersen,
who won the give away contest!

This drawing was inspired by my horse, Music.
Two days ago our next door neighbors brought their horses home
to live in their new barn. As the horses were being unloaded from the trailer,
Music started running around in our pasture and rearing up to show off.
She is 23 years old, but that day she would stop at nothing to
put on a show for her new friends!

This is number 8 of 50 Horses in 50 Days.
If you're interested in purchasing this drawing,

Pastel Horse Drawing by Theresa Paden

"Topaz"

By Theresa Paden

#5 of 50 Horses in 50 Days

8" X 8" Pastel on paper

15% of the sale will be donated to California Coastal Horse Rescue

As I mentioned yesterday, I'm taking a three day workshop in Pasadena,

taught by Dreama Tolle Perry and Leslie Saeta.

Today at the workshop, Leslie demonstrated how to create

a beautiful painting without a paint brush!.

It's amazing what she can do using only a palette knife!

Then we all painted vibrantly colored boats in a harbor,

with our palette knives, using oils on panels.

It was lots of fun and we learned a lot.

This pastel drawing of a beautiful blue-eyed horse

is number 5 of 50 Horses in 50 Days.

If you're interested in purchasing it, please email me.

50 Horses in 50 Days, Art Benefiting California Coastal Horse Rescue

I am very excited to announce that starting today I will be

painting and drawing 50 horses in 50 days and 15% of the profits will be given to

California Coastal Horse Rescue in Ojai. The equine artwork will

consist of drawings and paintings. Some will be small and some larger.
The styles will also vary and will include impressionistic,
expressionistic, and abstract.

California Coastal Horse Rescue in Ojai provides food, shelter, rehabilitation,

medical care, and adoption services for horses that have been abused, abandoned or neglected. This is an opportunity for me to help those horses. It's also going to be

a growing experience for me as an artist. I hope you will follow along

and watch my progress over the next 50 days!
