Someone asked
me recently if I had reached my goal with the Mustang A Day Challenge. I will
let you be the judge.
The Goal was to paint 260 mustangs in one year, tell some
of their stories and put a name to a face of each living mustang I painted.
During the
time from December 1st , 2010
to December 31st 2011 I painted 300 equines for the Challenge in 244
paintings.
285 Living
Mustangs either in the wild or in captivity were painted during that time.
5 of the
horses (not including Monet from Sand Wash Basin) were domestics.
11 were wild
burros.
13 were Colonial
Mustangs from the East Coast.
5 were wild highland
ponies from Virginia.
2 of the
mustangs, living this year in the wild, were painted in memorial after they had
died in the wild.
So what is coming for the Mustang A Day Challenge in 2012?
I will still be painting Mustangs, as well as rescued horses. I will be
doing larger oil paintings this year with the goal of doing one completed oil
painting a week of Mustangs for 22 weeks beginning in February. Watch this
space for more information to come. Plus I hope to have some interesting surprises
to announce later in the year.
If you are currently on the schedule to have your horse painted in the challenge, It is on going until I finish all that are on the schedule. Contact me if you submitted photographs and you haven’t seen the painting on the Mustang A Day Blog by January 31, 2012. I will paint them all.
