Artist's Comments

Well.. more charcoaling. It's an addiction you know.
The original photograph is credit to ~SharysAogail and can be found here: [link]
Dear ~SharysAogail. I found your photo on the wonderful ~Equine-Resource and I hope you don't mind I drew it. :) I changed it a little, this was deliberate (Basically I calmed the pose down a bit, its not so drastic, nor is the eye rolling, and stuff)

I'm still not happy though...far too splotchety, scruffy and flat. expect more experimentation soon, peoples

(Oh, and the camera absolutely SLAUGHTERED it, it's nicer in person)

Your charcoals are coming out nicely. I like this pose, it's cute :)

I personally think we should take all the world leaders, put them in a bull-pit and let them fight to the death. Then the rest of us can go party.

Only one word - WOW!
You have such vividness and expression in your horseprotraits. A feast for the eye:) A difficult pose, strange angles and proportions, and you nailed it.

You may not like it, but I certainly do! Especially the detail of the folded skin under the neck. :clap: Very cute!
