Away from the bustle of activity at a country campdraft, Ron discovered this gorgeous little trio, doing their own thing. Confident in horsemanship this little lad is leading his patient little pony with a rather apprehensive passenger astride – perhaps it is her very first ride, and she’s not quite sure about it! Some horses - no matter what their size - are excellent with children, and take great care of their charges, as does this shaggy coated little pony following his little master.
This painting features heavy texture in the paint application to achieve the effect of shaggy coat, foliage, grass and flowers, which contrasts with the smooth texture of helmet, clothing and saddle.
Beautifully framed with a gold edged scooped silk slip, and a dark mahogany frame with a darker embossed inner edge.
