Little did I know I would need a color-coded road map - still working on it.
Once again, it's too wet for riding outside, so I guess I'll just have to paint. Actually, Bruno has been doing phenomenally well. He seems to like being ridden off seat-bones and legs. It gets very abstruse in a riderly sort of way. All horses have a preference as to how they like to be ridden - the hands, the leg, the seat-bones and weight, or a combination. Right now, the lad seems most responsive when I don't muddle and nitpick with his mouth; he just hums along on weight shifts of my seat-bones, and variable calf pressure. OK ... OK ... you have to be there ...
As always, I love to hear from you! |
Its drizzly here too- sort of- maybe it a fine mist! We love the sketch of Bruno !
ReplyDeleteIf I was a horse, I would feel like Bruno and want to be rode- just the way you do---- by leaving his mouth alone.

While I don't quite understand the riding issues but it does make sense they would have a preferance. I sure never gave it a thought though.
ReplyDeletePictures all look great, looking forward to seeing the final results.
I nearly stroked a horse once! :0)
ReplyDeleteLooks like we have captured the sun from you ... it had to happen sometime
Oh my goodness, Kathryn! The first one of Bruno is a winner already...and the Rhododendron is wonderful as well....I look forward to the update.
