Getting Ready, Oil on canvas, 9 in. x 12 in.
A groom gets a polo pony ready at the Lakewood Ranch Polo Club. Whenever I go to watch a polo match, I take some time to walk over to the grooming area and shoot some photos. This was a challenging subject to paint. The light and shadows are dramatic. I like drawing and painting all types of horses, but scenes with grooms working on their horses has been my most frequent subject lately. Visit my website at Sharon Guy Art.
