“Mom & Son” sold

Posted on by Yelena Shabrova

    After a long and eventful show life, “Mom & Son” is now going to live a peaceful life in a loving home, surrounded with pastures and happy horses – right where it belongs.

    Soft, finely detailed drawing of two horses - an mare and a foal pictured from a side. The mare (mom) is peacefully grazing with her head on the right lowered to the grass. The several months old foal is standing by her side suckling, his head slightly lowered to get to his mom's milk. Their bodies overlap. The grass beneath them is lightly sketched with fine strokes.

      This is what I hope to be the return of my long lost love for portraits. I mean human portraits. Horses were always fine and still are. But I haven’t draw a single human face in more than 15 years except for an occasional sketch here and there. It’s coming back now an feels like slipping in old comfortable shoes. “Scinthia” is not a real person, it’s my guess at what the name might look like.
