Jersey Girl

Here is a 16" x 20" watercolor commission I recently completed for Jocelyn Spelker. It's her wonderful mare, Jersey Girl.

Paintings for Horse Rescue

If you are a horse lover, you know there are lots of horse rescue causes out there. There are many, many decent horses who wind up headed for slaughter that deserve to be saved. A few weeks ago, a ran across a very active group of horse rescue folks, headed up by Sharon Catalano-Crumb. They go to the weekly horse killpen auction in New Jersey and buy up horses and find them new homes.

The fundraising and networking is done on Facebook. Yesterday I posted some of my paintings on Facebook, and am donating 50% of the proceeds to this cause. If you are interested in participating, go to Facebook, search for me, Caren Goodrich, and send me a friend request. Also send a friend request to Sharon Catalano-Crumb and join the cause, NJ Killpen Horses...Horse Angels of Facebook.

Bear In Tree

Bear In Tree. 11"x14" acrylic on gallery wrap canvas

I haven't posted any new art in awhile. Yes, I've been painting, I just took a hiatus from the blog. But I'm back and here is a recent painting. I am really interested in texture. I'm adding lots of it via acrylic gels and mediums, makes you want to touch the painting, not just look at it!
