Started painting Ameldar – the alpha horse of the stable. 10 min in – a killer silhouette. My first tries were trash, but today it clicked. This stallion stood calm for 2 hours. I still freeze around horses – got kicked by a pony as a kid. Progress is slow, but it’s real.
After 2 hours, Ameldar got tired. His hips started shifting left, pulling his head sidewaysI couldn't keep painting.
I asked the grooms to push his hip back, but I couldn't do it myself.
I'm learning to read horses, but my body still remembers fear. Progress is slowbut it's real.
This horse is brave. He didn't even flinch when I waved brushes and plastic bags — which is rare for a horse.
Meanwhile, last week a passing horse almost fainted because a cloth moved in the wind.
But me? I still freeze around horses. Got kicked twice by a pony as a kid.
Started painting Ameldar, the alpha stallion of the stable. Pure Akhal-Teke blood, calm and steady — stood for 2 hours like a statue.
10 minutes in, I already had a killer silhouette. My first attempts were trash — anatomy all wrong. But today something clicked.
