Commandment

2026 Derby portraits are in progress

I'm back to oil paint for this year and honestly haven't decided what I want to do with the backgrounds so they're all just whatever flat color I picked for the base.

So far I have:

Paladin

Commandment

Class President

Iron Honor

The Puma

Potente

Incredibolt

Fulleffort

Emerging Market

Golden Tempo

Renegade

Silent Tactic

Next on deck to paint are Wonder Dean & Further Ado. Once I've got them all finished, I'll go back and add in backgrounds and get high-res scans.

It’s Derby Day!  🏇

The race hasn't even started yet, and there has already been plenty of excitement: Four scratches (including top contender The Puma this morning), rumors swirling of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce attending as part owners of The Puma, and favorites Renegade and Further Ado drawing unlucky post positions one and 17, respectively! (No horse has ever won from post 17!) But the weather is staying calm and dry, so get ready for a fast track! 🐎💨

I put on a saddle and Brunhilda hopped on my shell to join in the excitement! Out of the current favorites, we are rooting for the joyously named So Happy, but we will also be keeping an eye on Further Ado (who has the fastest top-end speed and great closing speed), Renegade (whose jockey reportedly chose him over Further Ado and Commandment), and Commandment (coming off four wins in a row, but can he keep up with the Derby distance?)! 🐎🐢🦕

Love One Another

And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.
