Meet Secretariat’s Great(x3) Grandson

Image
 Hi all! Today I’m going to introduce you to a home-town celebrity! Get ready, and you might wanna sit down....  For those of you that don’t know who Secretariat is, here’s a brief description from Wikipedia... “ Secretariat (March 30, 1970 – October 4, 1989) was a champion American Thoroughbred racehorse who is the ninth winner of the American Triple Crown. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest racehorses of all time. He became the first Triple Crown winner in 25 years and his record-breaking victory in the Belmont Stakes, which he won by 31 lengths, is widely regarded as one of the greatest races in history. During his racing career, he won five Eclipse Awards, including Horse of the Year honors at ages two and three. He was nominated to the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in 1974. In the List of the Top 100 U.S. Racehorses of the 20th Century, Secretariat is second only to Man o' War.” Well anyway, a friend at my English barn has been looking for a horse. ...

How To Paint A Watercolor (like mine)

Image
 Hi all, Amelia here. Recently I posted the photos of my watercolors, and today I’ll do a tutorial! I’m going to be doing the tutorial on my iPad, because it’s easier to take photos, but the idea is the same. First (optional) use painters tape to line the borders the make a cool framing effect. So first, you’ll either sketch or trace a silhouette of the thing you want.  What I do is print a silhouette, then draw over it with the sharpie. That will leave you with a simple shape, and you can then trace the shape and fill out the details. *ALWAYS USE A PENCIL* If you use a pen, it will run and smudge and be bad all over, trust me. Use a pencil! Next you’ll use some light blue to start. Use side to side strokes, not up and down. If you need to blend lower to get the color you want, then go down, but cover it with side to side. Occasionally, you can get your brush wet to fade the color a bit. Then follow with some red. Blend it carefully with the blue, making sure not to blend them...
