Almost finished this one - still wet, pardon the shine. "Buck" - 8" x 6" oil on linen panel. One of the Onaqui stallions that I was lucky enough to see on a trip west last August. #horsepainting #traditionalpainting #oilpainting #wildhorsepainting #mustang #judylalingopaintings #wildhorseart

"Thunderstruck - Onaqui" 2.5" x 3.5" acrylic miniature on panel. Thunderstruck is the name of this stallion & thunderstruck is pretty much how I felt about the Onaqui horses. Left a piece of myself in Utah. #wildhorses #horsepainting #traditionalpainting #fineartinminiature #judylalingopaintings

Wild stallion portrait from the Onaqui herd, UT. Bay horse with long black mane against the earth colours of the desert.

Silicone. According to my framer, it's the product that conservators recommend. Thanks! :)

Thanks Hank! Yeah, it's a floater idea that my framer thought up for miniatures. Takes a simple wood frame molding that has at least 1" height of a regular frame & flipping it on its side, so the lip/rabbet width becomes the face of the frame & the painting sits on the rabbet depth.

"Destiny is Her Name" - I had the opportunity to watch a very spirited Rocky Mountain horse showing off in her paddock. I like the challenge of exploring new colour combos. #horseart #horsepainting #animalpainting #traditionalpainting #animalart #oilpainting #judylalingopaintings
