Rider Study

I wanted to change the rider, but I needed to get a sense of the size, anatomy, and how a person has a seat on a horse. These quick little studies helped. I liked the one on the right, even though the proportion of the leg was wrong. A kind of languor there. Oil on paper.

Comment by Michael Chomse on July 13, 2013 at 20:46: Swapping legs is the least of it, Jim. I have done that, kind of combining them. I hope that my painting skills might be less painful to you than your opponents tackling skills. :-) Today is painting day, so I'll keep you posted.

Comment by Jim Haycock on July 13, 2013 at 15:54: What if you took the leg off the guy on the left and put it on the guy on the right? (I think somebody did that to me once when I was playing football...)
