The original painting of this pegasus was painted in oil on canvas, and I gave it to a friend. I liked the image enough, though, to re-do it for my portfolio. The new piece (above) is painted in oil on illustration board. I worked from the preliminary pencil sketches that I drew to create the first version. I improved on the original by adding reflections of the hills in the river and adding a misty looking border to separate the mountains. A photo of the original painting is at the left.
