Today we had the Name the Painting winners, Aleshia and her husband come by the studio. My husband (Paul) had previously gone down to Victoria to deliver the print to them and there was a little photo op with their horse Nessey (whom no doubt provided some inspiration)

And the Winner is:
“SABLE SPIRIT” entered by Aleshia Kiedaisch. Congratulations Aleshia!
We laboured over this for several hours and then the difficult task fell to me to select “the one.” I will say that it was much harder to do than I would have thought as there are so many great names. Thank you again to all who entered and shared their suggestions.
Cheers, Joan

I’m stumped. I have not been able to come up with a title for this artwork that accurately reflects the quirky expression on this horse’s face. So I thought that I would like some help with it.
You can email your suggestion(s) to me using the form below.
The winner will receive a limited edition print of the “as yet unnamed” artwork. It will be announced on Monday, June 20th.
Thanks, Joan

HI,This horse reminds me one of my camps horse,named Cocoa…This horse has the same personality of her i think,but i would like to submit more then one name if that is alright?Here are my names!
*Cocoa
*Pepa(Pernounced Pep-eh)
*Sandy
*Brownie
*Chester
*I Have A Free Spirit Somewhere
*Runningwind
*Jack Sparrow
Hope you like ’em all!
Thanks so much for your entries!
P.S. Was your horse Cocoa a bit quirky?
Unsure
Thanks Tania. That name captures the feeling behind his expression.
I think this horse is saying,
“How much longer?”
or
“Do I have to pose?”
Those are my suggestions for titles. Your work is beautiful, by the way!
Thank you Rosemary . . . both for your contest entries and for your kind comment about my work.
Cheers,
Joan
