Arabian horses are, to many, the epitome of grace and beauty. I'll never forget the first time I saw one running in the land where they were originally bred -- the area we now call Arabia. I was participating in an archaeological dig near Amman, Jordan, and was getting ready to start digging a new trench. I happened to look down onto the valley below where I saw one of the King's grooms riding an incredible Arabian horse at full speed over the sand. That horse just seemed to dance over the landscape like the wind, and that became the inspiration for the title of this piece. Unusually for me, I used a Creative Commons - licensed image by Aislinn Brander as the reference for this painting. I recommend that even if you use a Creative Commons image, you credit the photographer and give him/her a donation as a way of saying thanks. In this case, I gave Aislinn a donation for the use of her photo reference, and when this painting sells, I will give her an additional donation in gratitude. For this painting I used Gamblin Paints (#gamblincolors #gamblin ): -Titanium White -Cadmium Red Medium -Cadmium Lemon -Cobalt Blue -Raw Umber -Yellow Ochre (not really necessary) I did not use any medium in my paint for this piece.

Thanks again for tuning in as I finish this painting. This piece started out as a demo painting at the K. Newby Gallery in Tubac, Arizona. It wasn't quite refined enough so I took it home to work on it more. I spent a total of additional 2 hours finishing up this piece before taking it back to the gallery. I used my standard color palette in this painting, mostly Gamblin paints and Galkyd Gel.

This is the start of a series of reviews of Masterworks paintings that I will be doing over the next several months. By looking at the art of master artists, we can learn a lot about how they painted so that we can incorporate some of these ideas into our own works. Plus, it's just fun to look at great art! Let's take a look at a Masterwork painting by American artist Mary Cassatt for this first review. More of these reviews will be available exclusively on my Patreon site (see link below).

Welcome to my art studio! Today I am going to take you on a tour of the core colors that I normally use in my paintings. I will introduce you to my regulars: reds, yellows, and blues. Then I will show you modifiers, and we will finish by discussing grays. No, I don't have a Gamblin sponsorship. I bought all of these colors myself, with my own funds. But I like #GamblinColors and use them almost exclusively because of their high quality, reasonable price point, and they are (relatively) local to me. I prefer to buy products that are made as close to home as possible to minimize shipping. There are other brands of paint just as good as Gamblin. Look for artist-grade or professional quality paints and you won't go wrong.
