It took a few days to get to the hardware store due to the cold and working, but I managed to get a nice colonial maple stain to stain the wood.
I am an artist, crafter, horse person, dog person, cat person, Star Wars fan, Harry Potter fan, and so much more. I will chatter about it all :)

NaMoPaiMo - Minis Painting Minis 2021
This year Jareth and BB8 are competing again in NaMoPaiMo's Minis Painting Minis challenge.
Jareth and BB8 show their collection |
Jareth saw my stablemate and wanted to paint it |
BB8 has a very tiny horse |
Getting some prepping done!!
Jareth has taken over the art area - poor BB8 can't get in to paint. But as of today - February 6, 2021 - Jareth has completed his model and is pleased with it.
Now with Jareth completing his model and onto ruling the Underground, BB8 is working on his!
BB8 is still working on his and I started another model to see if I could complete a second Appaloosa this month.
And finally on Saturday the 13th BB8 finished the model.
As last year, this year's Minis Painting Minis has been a fun adventure.

Favorite Artist Series - Model Horse Artist Kristy Thiessen
Kristy Thiessen is a Canadian artist that I follow. She does really cool, yet disgusting and disturbing Zombie horses, as well as some regular horses and other art pieces too.
These are some of my favorites.
This piece was a Collaboration with Epic Fail Studios. |
Kristy has also done some of my FAVORITE medallions for Haunted Horse Live model horse show. I painted the ones below.
Check out her great art at Kay's Creations!

NaMoPaiMo - National Model Painting Month - February 2021
It's that time of year again - NAMOPAIMO is Coming.
Today I sent in my registration, my fee and posted my selfie - I am doing a Mini Thunderbutt (he was my 2020 ICEE horse) and now I am going to paint him green Appaloosa. I LOVE Appaloosas and can never just make them look right, so that's my goal - even in a fantasy color this year.
And a short video of the initial airbrush base going on!
Now on to more layers!!
I was horribly sick from my second covid shot or I would have completed him sooner. I managed to complete him on Saturday, February 6.
