Charger-Carousel horse

 Close ups

Oil on 5x7 canvas panel.

This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. Elaine did the honor of hosting this week and provided a bunch of great photos!

For the challenge this week, Elaine submitted all black and white reference photos to work from. Pointing out once again, that if the values are right the painting will look right. Colors are of a secondary importance.
 C&C welcome. Thanks for taking a peek and commenting.
