Ready horse painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

To some this may look a little messy to others an intentional mess and yet still others organized chaos. I like to call it art. I have been studying the work of other artist and each time I ask myself why I like what they painted. As I study farther I ask is it the smooth perfect lines or the hidden colors. I decided it was all of it. I think I especially like it when I add colors that even I don't see. Like blue when it should be black or pink or purple that I decide to place just because I want to. Anyway what I find today is a loose painting that makes me happy and isn't that what it is all about?

Traditions by Angela Sullivan

I just thought I would try another. I just can't seem to make myself

paint smooth and plain. I do ok to start with then I get that crazy palette knife and

loads of paint just seems to jump onto the canvas. I am happy when I paint. It is like all the

stress of the day just flows away.

used on this one. Hope you enjoy....

In A Misty Field by Angela Sullivan

I could have been a city horse but no I was one of those lucky ones. I was born on a small farm in the deep south. My mom was a race horse and dad...well he just plowed the fields. But we were happy back then and now that I am all grown up I hope I can teach my offspring the same values that my parents taught me. Things about never spit into the wind and always let ladies go first. Oh yes and that sunshine is Gods way of saying I love you...5x7 oil on canvas panel.
