Paintings By Diana Holcombe

Bed and Breakfast
(16x20 Acrylic)

This painting was done for a friend of mine.  He had been traveling to Canada and had taken a snapshot and was wondering if I wanted something to try out some new paint...

Running Foal
(7" x 9" Colored Pencil)

 The original photo was taken about 25 years ago.  In this drawing, the foal was being weaned and was crying for mom when the gate was suddenly OPENED!

 
 

Nana's Little Girl
(18 x 24 oil)

This portrait was commissioned by the little girl's grandmother as a surprise for her parents.  She was really pleased with the way the picture captured her grand-daughter's likeness and personality.

 Bloodhound
(18x24 oil portrait)

I chose this pose of Mika so that her eyes would grab the viewers attention.  When Mika's owner saw the picture, she just couldn't get over how real the eyes were.
