Just came across ULTIMOS CUADROS, a marvelous blog dedicated to the renowned Spanish artist Augusto Ferrer-Dalmau (His personal page can be found here). Although I recognize some of the paintings (some I have used for my header pictures), I admit I was not otherwise familiar with this very talented artist. So I am thankful to Vincent (Captain LOL) at Figurine Passion for passing this along on his blog. As a lover of cavalry his heavily military equestrian themed art makes them an instant hit with me. These are just a small sample of a wonderful collection of military art.
Must say, very nice paintings, thanks for posting.

ReplyDeleteYou're welcome guys! and thanks again to Captain LOL for posting this on his blog in the first place. :-)
ReplyDeleteInspiring stuff.
Vincent puts some really nice things on his blog-along with the gorgeous pieces he paints.
ReplyDeleteThis kind of thing inspires me to paint. I also have a pretty good collection of war scenes on videos that I put on while I paint.
You might want to take a look at the Polish-Lithuanion Winged Hussars on YouTube. If this doesn't get your brush moving, nothing will.

ReplyDeleteWow those are cool. I guess they need some wood arouind the sides and place to put them- no more space in your war room! hah! Maybe a rotation app...
