Samantha Pearce – Equine Art and Photography – Sydney, Australia bio picture
  • Welcome to my Equine Art and Photography blog!

    I am an artist and photographer from Sydney, Australia. I am a professional Child and family photographer. I have also been passionately in love with horses all my life! I've painted portraits of Arabian Horses since I was in my early teenage years. After having some time out the last 12 yrs due to having four beautiful children, I'm slowly finding time for my art again.

    Occasionally I will open my books to a limited number of commission paintings, you are welcome to enquire. I will also from time to time have original artwork for sale and also some limited edition fine art prints.

    I also photograph Pets and Equine

    My blog is where I show my latest work in both paintings and equine photography.

    I also have a Child and Family blog - CHILDREN & FAMILY BLOG

    Thanks for visiting and please leave a comment, I'd love to hear from you!

Latest painting – Bay arabian stallion

I love this one so much.  I’m not sure what I’m going to do with him yet.  I might keep him for myself.   I am planning on getting some giclee prints made though.   He is approx 21 x 27 inches, gouache, pastels and coloured pencils on stonehenge paper.

new commission – palomino part arabian mare

I finished this commission last week, I’m so happy with how she turned out.   First time painting a palomino, it was a lot of fun, but a challenge.  I think I used about 13 different shades of cream to get the coat colour right.  I love her dapples.

Two grey arabians

I finished these two this week. The big dark grey is just so beautiful, I’m really happy with how he turned out. My reference was a photo by Khaled Al Mutairi, used with his permission. Starting a new commission this week, very excited about this one, my first palomino.

New arabian horse painting on Ampersand Aquabord

Here is the result of my second go on aquabord.   I’m still undecided if I love the boards or not.  I think I do.  Well I love the end results but they are a bit tricky to use.  I need more practice I think.   I’ve used prismacolor pencils on here for details, and I don’t think it is such a good idea on the clay.    I’m yearning for a medium that lets me get hard but soft lines at the same time…..  is there such a thing?   Oneday I’m going to have to try oils or acrylics again.   I really love this piece, again this a redo from an old painting.  Will post the two side by side in this post.   This time I think I’ve improved!   yay for me:)

 

and here is the comparison,
