In this charming book the author shares a wealth of practical experience with regard to capturing beautiful horses and ponies using oils and watercolour, discussing the challenges of producing a painting and talks about her experiences in exhibiting and selling her own paintings. The personal stories are interspersed with selections from her Dreaming Billabong novels which are compelling in their own right and also involve horses in differing roles. I found that reading the book on the Kindle app on my iPad gave me the added colour and size which made detailed viewing of the beautiful pictures a real pleasure. Whether you intend to ever paint horses or not, this book is still a very enjoyable read and a visual delight!
