Equamore Paintings in Progress – Inspired Pet Portraits & Animal Paintings in Oil by Dana Feagin

Here is a sneak peek at the beginnings of my Equamore horse series… I am heading back to Equamore on Sunday with a friend who has a much fancier camera to capture some of the details I couldn’t see in my own photos….clearly I need a camera upgrade if I plan to be taking photos in dark barns! I should have 6 Equamore horse paintings done in time for March First Friday, when these paintings will be shown in the Studio Artist Gallery upstairs at the Ashland Art Center.  March 1st is National Horse Protection Day, so it seemed fitting to celebrate that and all the great work Equamore does to provide a home for abandoned and starving horses. They also operate a hay bank to provide food for horses when owners can no longer afford to feed them. If you haven’t heard about Equamore, check out their website www.equamore.org and like their new Facebook page www.facebook.com/HorseSanctuary. They are just a few miles down Highway 66 in Ashland & they need our support!
