Untitled (Horse And Rider)
“Untitled” (Horse And Rider) Painting by Sophia Ehrlich, May 10, 2003 Watercolor. After seeing this painting of a horse and Native American rider, I asked Sophia if she would be interested in illustrating a book for children. She declined, saying to have to paint rather than being inspired to paint, would ruin the fun. … Continue…Untitled (Horse And Rider)
Birch Trees
Birch Trees — Marker and Sepia India Ink, December 27, 2004. I am a weather junky. I love spring, summer, fall, and winter. Especially winter. Bare trees get me going, thinking about spring and rebirth. I love seeing the structures of the trees that are hidden by their summer leaves.

Crackers
Crackers is a special horse with a special story. He suffered a near catastrophic injury and it was thought he would not recover. His owner decided to give this kindhearted horse a chance and turned him out to pasture in hopes he would at least live out his days in peace. One day, long after his injury, his owner saw Crackers trotting outside her window. Nothing short or miraculous, she wanted him to have love and leased him to another woman, Kathy, who had her own heartache to heal from. Together, Crackers and Kathy thrived and enjoyed many happy times together until it was time to let him retire. … Continue…Crackers

Pleasure
“Pleasure” Painting by Sophia Ehrlich, May 2006, Watercolor. This is the last painting Sophia finished before she passed away. She had started one more, a black horse running, but was not able to finish it. Pleasure was supposed to be a study in color but the entire painting is wonderful. No one would know Sophia was just playing with her paints. The end result looks like a masterpiece to me. … Continue…Pleasure
Paso Fino
“Paso Fino!” February 2006 Watercolor by Sophia Ehrlich. Sophia loved horses and even had her own horse, Foxy Jane, when she lived in Reno.
