Digital color concepts by Sherry. These examples offer just a few possibilities — the real magic is seeing how each collector imagines their own finished horse!

"Your horse must back up with no resistance or defensive behavior. Keep lightness and even flexion in the neck and poll, while maintaining steadiness in the head. ...The three most important things in backing are lightness, straightness and speed."
