I would like to dedicate this chapter to my muse Rembrandt.
Rembrandt was one of the most successfull dressage horses of all times. By winning Olympic Games, World Championships, European Championships and many other titles, he won the hearts and respect of many horsemen and women the world over.
He was the muse for my first commission as well as the start of my career.
Here for your viewing are some of the drawings I have done of him over the last 10 years. I have drawn no other horse as often and with as much feeling as I have drawn Remmi.
"Together Alone" is the latest portrait of Rembrandt . (I am also proud to say the Starving Artists website Editor's Choice for the month of February )
Remmi and I became friends back in 1993 when I went to work for top Dressage rider Nicole Uphoff. This portrait is unusual, a peak into the private life of a champion. A wonderful memory for those who knew him so well.
Remmi is dead now...
Together Alone is my thank you for what he gave me, my tribute to his memory and a facet of my love for him.
He was a star, my star and nothing can replace the moments when we were together alone.
