It was shortly after that I bought my first pastels and the rest, as they say, is history :o)Sue Clinkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15582183867336673426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36599430.post-2159712188013078792010-05-13T18:41:59.416+02:002010-05-13T18:41:59.416+02:00Wonderful photos - you are beaming with joy!

My girl is a shire cross thoroughbred - nowhere near as big as Hurricane but still 'chunky' we've had enormous fun over the years and some modest success in dressage and endurance events and she too has the most amazing personality :o)Sue Clinkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15582183867336673426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36599430.post-11810370208436259672010-05-13T09:01:30.522+02:002010-05-13T09:01:30.522+02:00Alex: I know ...he's quite wide.

I always try to go by the great piece of advice I was once given: to never forget the beauty of each stroke.<br />Jeannette: You are so right.
