Paint Horse Portrait of "Cracker"

The portrait of Cracker is an example of how much a talented horse portrait artist can add to a painting by not blindly using the photograph. I'm not saying the artist unfairly presents the subject. I refer to the fact that the artist brings out the best of the subject by understanding horses. This is certainly true in this fantastic Paint Horse Portrait as you will read further down this page.

How Crackers Photograph Turned Into A Perfect Paint Horse Portrait

Cracker is a horse that lives out in Oregon. My sister e-mailed me and sent me this digital photo and asked me if I could do it for her to give her boyfriend as a Christmas gift. The horse in the photo had her ears hanging out to the side and looked pretty droopy. I perked her up and gave her a little lift to her head to make her look alert. They were both thrilled with the painting.
