A big chunk of a serious education in the arts used to consist of copying the works of the old masters. So this past week, as I've been engaged in doing more historical copies (works of the older masters) for the horse book, I feel like I'm in the spirit--if not the continent or style--of the practice!

Here's my rendering of some petroglyphs in Mongolia (which after researching, I now desperately want to visit, by the way):

    Gorgeous stuff. Your adaptable style and talent lends itself nicely to this kind of work. Though I know it's not what you'd prefer to be doing...

    Thanks, Hilary. It's definitely fun in its way, and is good practice for all sorts of things.
