Kerry Originals

I just listed these two new ACEOs.  Both are in oil.

"Classic" on 1/32" thick oak board

"Big Red" on 1/16" multimedia board

Larger images and detail close-ups can be seen on the auction listings. 

   Ahhhh! What can possibly be cuter than baby animals! This latest ACEO oil painting is of a beautiful white mare and her new chestnut baby. Painted in oil on a very thin, 1/32" thick, gessoed oak panel. This is thin enough to fit in standard trading card top-loaders, and, is strong as any high grade paper stock with the added interest of a woodgrained back.

"Arab Mare & Foal"

Please view the listing to see detail enlargements and to bid on this item!

White horses are wonderful subjects to paint,  and, I really do enjoy painting them, but....the dark side is calling!  Here is a shadow boy with a lot of spirit!  "Black" is an ACEO oil painting on multimedia art board in the standard trading card format of 2.5"x3.5". 

and, a much larger than life image to show details! 

(Those black and white speckles on the neck are lint spots from my scanner and are not on the painting!)

I call this one "Arab Charm", another 4x6" oil painting.  This arab is watching something far off on the horizon and is painted in a looser style with a very abstract background. 

Uh Ooh! Getting brave here and putting a human figure into this one! Can't very well have the horse running a 3-day event by himself! This is another 4x4 inch oil painting called, "The Eventers".

My new listings for the week include this new 4x4 inch oil painting of a white Arabian horse,

"Plume".

Other listings for the week include

"Move Fast, Move Silent" a new centaur and dragon fantasy piece, a 4x6 oil.

Also, from earlier this week, another oil ACEO of another white arabian, "Arab West". 

Please note that except for the centaur/dragon painting, these photos are much larger than the original artworks!  Thankyou for looking!

Another white arabian, this time wearing a western style bridle of leather and silver.  This is an ACEO oil painting, measuring 2 1/2" X 3 1/2" and comes in a trading card clear plastic soft sleeve.  This photo is near life-size! 

"Morgan Pride" 

2.5" x 3.5" oil ACEO

This one just would not sell as it was painted originally, and, I feel it is a pretty decent ACEO, certainly good enough not to trash, so, I gave it a facelift!  I reworked the shape and position of the head, lightened the (neck) background, and changed the far background color from pink to aqua.  OK, now let's see how he does!   

"Stormy" 

2.5" x 3.5" oil ACEO

   This little painting features a herd awaiting the coming storm...and getting excited!  With the wind in thier manes and tails, it won't take much more, a crack of thunder, or, a few big splats of rain, and, they will take off, bucking and snorting, and, running!

Today, I am listing two new paintings of arabian horses!  The first is an 8x10 oil on thin multimedia board and is of a baby that has been all groomed and clipped for showing and presenting to buyers.  He's a little apprehensive about all the excitement and attention and is calling for his mama!  

The second painting is a 4x6 oil of a snow white arabian that I call, "Alabaster".  This fellow is an older grey horse that over the years has lost all the color in his hair, until he is as white as fine alabaster stone!

Coming soon, I have two new paintings of herds of horses!  One is an ACEO and the other a double 4x6 set of a galloping herd of horses!  Keep a watch for these two to be listed soon!
