This is a composite of two photographs and it has a few technical problems if viewed as a photograph. However, it is photo art and should be viewed as an artistic composition. Accordingly, all the usual warm fuzzy attributions of artistic license should be granted the photo-artist (phartist) and the photographer purists can give it a rest. The record should also reflect that I know the horse is not a "paint." The title comes from the fact that the horse is artfully painted - some models come that way.
