Sam, 17” x 11” watercolour
Many years ago I did a small portrait. Sam’s portrait, only 7” x 5”, a gift to a girlfriend. It was a good gift. They married and Sam was part of the family. Sam retired from the show ring. The family now included three children and a dog. He remained a Gentleman, who loved his family (and everyone else). The years mounted up. Sam needed to go to Horse Heaven. Husband (John) contacted me. Could I do another portrait? Yes.Sam’s forever memory for his family and all his other friends.
