Description
Yes, even horses have sibling rivalry and oh so deep it does run. I've been working on this horse painting for some time in bits and pieces. I intended to make a companion painting to Amber's Run some time ago. This is Amethyst, Amber's sister. Amethyst is a wee bit smaller than Amber. She may be smaller but she is very mighty. Amber and Amethyst are from the Golden, Colorado coral where the Golden Colorado Westernairres kids stable their horses. Amber and Amethyst are very competitive, each vying for my attention when I come to see them. Their respect is mutual, especially when in competition together. When I go to visit them, you can tell how much they truly love each other even though they both complain to me about the other. I understand them well and you could say it' s my horse sense.
Here's my blog with Amber's and Amethyst's paintings.

I love going through your images because I always find a wonderful gem. And what a gem this is ... the brilliant colors as background to lovely Amythist is perfection!! Love the brilliant glow of light on her cheek, and love the way you've added hints of contrasting turquoise ... as always, the work of the true artist!!! l/f
