Bay horse portrait painting by UK pat artist Pippa Elton

I hope you enjoy viewing my gallery of horse portraits. The gallery features a majority of commissioned portraits, as well as a selection of my own works that I created while exploring new materials.

I would like to share that my artwork features a life-like, highly detailed, and painterly style that I have developed over the course of thirty years in the field of portraiture. Each of my portraits is crafted with great care and precision over many hours, utilizing high-quality materials and rich colors and tones to achieve a stunning likeness. I work in pastel, graphite pencil, coloured pencil, watercolour and oils on canvas.

If you have any questions about the materials I use or whether a specific medium would be suitable for your portrait please get in touch as I’d be delighted to advise.

“Amazing artist, I would highly recommend Pippa to anyone. The Portrait Pippa kindly did for my fathers Birthday, of his late dog Max, is truly amazing and he’ll cherish it forever – thank you.

Stunning!

Cannot recommend Pippa highly enough. I had a portrait done of our horse for my Mum’s birthday present, and she was lost for words how stunning it was.
