If you're looking for a Luxury and unique Christmas or Birthday present for a horse owner or horse lover, then a portrait of their beloved horse might be just the trick. I guess that the time and thought it takes into commissioning a portrait will really show loved ones how much you care.  The process also seems quite simple. Simply email a photograph of the horse to horses@fabulousmasterpieces.co.uk and using that to work from, one of their artist's will paint a beautiful horse portrait such as the portraits above. They then will email you a photo of the finished portrait for your approval.  Portraits start from £167, free delivery worldwide.

Another option that would make a great gift for horse admirers would be to commission a fine art replica of their favourite horse painting. What is a fine art replica, you might be asking?

Well, for example alot of us, all have posters or prints of famous works of art adorning our rooms. Such as Monet's Japanese Bridge or Van Gogh's Sunflowers perhaps. Well, instead of a print there are companies that actually hand-paint and copy original works of art for those people who would much prefer to have an oil painting than a poster. A lot of these hand-painted replicas aren't as expensive as you may think. This company, Fabulous Masterpieces for example paints fine art reproductions from just £197. So if that suits your budget, you could buy a replica oil painting of Stubb's famous Whistlejacket or like above, Franz Marc's Grazing horses.
