17. William Ersland A biographical sketch
I try and divide my working day among clients, gallery painting and my Sport
Horse, Ike. Some afternoons during the week and most weekends are “Horse Time”
and you’ll find me at the barn. My enthusiasm for the sport probably outmatches my
present riding ability, but riding sharpens my mental and physical skills and gives me
a greater understanding of my subject matter.
In the long, snowy winter months, I like to harness up a friend’s warmblood,
Prinz and drive one of my sleighs.
All of my paintings are underlaid with the academic drawing skills I have worked
hard to hone over the years. I underpaint everything in red, which not only infuses
the work with a thumping palpitating quality, but also works to harmonize the
colors in the painting, too.
Will and Prinz
