Horse Oil Painting of Chico

Welcome to our Horse Oil Painting of Chico. Chico was commissioned by returning client Una, who asked Nicholas to paint not only the portrait of Chico but an oil painting of her Labrador called Amber too.  You can view the oil painting of Amber on our Oil painting of Amber page.

The portrait of Chico is a 14″ x 14″ oil on Italian Linen Canvas. The portrait is based on a photo taken of Chico in an autumnal woodland setting which is the perfect backdrop. The colours in Chico’s portrait work so well. The warm sienna browns and yellow ochres of the woodland. Nicholas has captured the whole scene beautifully. You can see a finished scan below and I hope that you like it as much as we do!
