I had already painted the first layer of this painting of a beautiful Chestnut Peruvian Paso gelding called Tucker, kind permission of K Broemmelsick. I hung the canvas up to dry and it was actually almost a year until I managed to get a second session in. I filmed myself painting the next stage and made a video. When editing it, I found out that I use my fingers rather more than I realise!
