Invoking my childhood love of My Little Ponies and Fashion Star Fillies (and my later goth sensibilities) with this one! Vespera is Breyer’s Little Bits/Paddock Pals Arabian made over into a “black rainbow” unicorn. Her black coat has subtle overlays of some of the colors found in her mane and tail (made from hand-dyed wool roving.) Pretty pleased with the result! She’s available at https://www.etsy.com/listing/1232129917/vespera-custom-rrh-black-rainbow-unicorn

Super excited to get to customize a Hartland Regal Arabian! This one is a dark steel gray just starting to dapple, and the pictures don’t do justice to the little details. I named him Janus because when I first got him he had a nasty seam split in his face, which of course I’ve repaired. He’s available at https://www.etsy.com/listing/1216247584/janus-hartland-custom-dark-steeldapple

This is one of those customs I’ve been daydreaming about creating for months, and she’s finally come to fruition! Calendula is Breyer’s Stablemate Seabiscuit made over into a black pinto paint horse mare. She’s got a mohair mane and tail, and for all her small size she’s really quite striking. She is available at https://www.etsy.com/listing/1221731074/calendula-custom-black-pinto-breyer

I painted an Orville Peck inspired thing! This is “Show Pony”, a model horse painted with one side representing the “No Glory in the West” music video, and the other side representing the “Summertime” music video

As a smol consequence of acquiring smol horses, I have apparently gotten into the making of smol objects in their world… which includes side-trips into painting very Smol traditional paintings…
