Barn light study…

So this morning I wanted to try and concentrate on using natural light with a particular subject so I took the camera into the barn in hopes of sparking some creativity.

After an hour of cleaning stalls I went into the tack room and sure enough the light was entering in through the window on my saddle so I fired away. Below is a collage of the photos I liked from this morning.

Morning Ritual

The following takes place between 5:30am and 6:30am check email then fetch horses and stall duty.

The following takes place between 7:30am and 8:30am – Acai Smoothie and workout

Acai Smoothie Recipe
1 frozen pkg of Sambazon Acai Smoothie
1 lrg banana
1 danon creme yogurt
1 cup of chocolate soy milk
1 tblsp honey

Put all ingriendients in blender until smooth and enjoy. Best thiung to drink before a workout and a long day of work ahead of you!

Thought I’d post this recipe for an Acai Smoothie that I came up with a couple months ago when Rick and I first started drinking Acai Smoothies by Sambazon and Acai juice from Mon Avie.

Enjoy!

Blog, blog, blog, blog…blog, blog!

It is working hopefully for now thanks to well…hopefully it is working. I’m very tired today so not much going happnin’ round the farm.

Rick and I did get to go into town today and have lunch and a movie…a very rare break for us… we ate at Canyon’s and I had my turkey burger as usual…Rick was really good and had a salad which was still HUGE! Then it was off to see 3:10 to Yuma…a very well acted and nicely written screenplay. Definately a movie worth seeing, especially if you’ve seen and are tired of the Halloween movies that are out!

Anyways it’s back to work and then hopefully a good night’s sleep!

Thanks for coming…

Blogger Issues…arrrggghhh!

So, I’m redesigning anitrone and indyrain.com and am also trying to template wordpress to match the new redesign; unfortunately all attempts to be successful at creating a wp theme has failed so far; so for time being I will use WordPress’ default theme in hopes that all works out well by the time the relauch is ready. Enjoy!

Ciao Bellas!

Day’s End

More painting tutorials, today it was a combination of smudge painting and practicing brush strokes.

With this I wanted it to add more dramatic areas, this was a shot from many of Indy & Rain after running wild in the outdoor arena at the local equestrian center.

I think I’m addicted…

So I started working on tutorials from my workbooks again and found myself exploring and experimenting more that following along step by step.

The result…

Charcoals, pencils and other stuff.

I’m hoping to get more tutorials done so I can really get a better feeling and knowledge of how the brushes and well basically everything syncs together.
