Playing favorites

I don't have a favorite kid...

or a favorite dog... 

or even a favorite horse. 

And yet, every time I get involved in some sort of a hobby related "Ask me Anything" challenge, some is sure to ask if I have a favorite model. 

I don't.

All three of these are contenders

That hasn't always been the case. When I was very young, I loved Zucchini the most...

and in the early days of this blog, I often referred to Nejmet es Subh as "my favorite horse."

Those two are still on my short list, but they've been joined by at least a dozen Purdy horses... 

and mules. 

I am also extremely attached to a number of ponies...

and a small herd of portrait models. 

Yeah, there's no way this one's going to be left behind!

I'm sorry, Teresa. I find your question to be completely unanswerable. If I have enough time to save one, then I'm pretty sure I have enough time to save them all... or at least all my "favorites!"
