As this wasn't a commission I decided my aim would be to emphasise the movement and front of the horse and everything else would be less important. If this was a commission the client would have had input and I could have put a jacket on the rider , had the horse plaited maybe even had the rider the most important. That's the beauty of a painting, unlike a photo where it is already chosen for you and everything is important , in a painting you can choose to emphasise whatever you want .So from one photo you can get several paintings all with a different feel.
