Description
Other drawing I did in China. Again, definitely not my best, but it was a quick drawing, so...eh. Tweaked the mane a little after this scan was made, but it's not a huge, huge difference. It was going to be given to my grandmother, but then my other grandmother wanted it, and to avoid getting tangled in messy family politics, they each got a print of it. And then my dad got the original, because he liked it. Haha.I really don't like having to draw light-colored manes, especially against backgrounds.

Awesome shading on the neck and chest. Once again, the background color works so well with the spots on the horse. Beautiful work.
I also like the fact that you paid attention to those spots, and that the outsides are a lighter color.

Thank you! It was fun to do another paint, but this time in color pencil...don't know quite why, but it was rather satisfying

Gosh, your work is just so lively... I honestly can star at it all day and not get tired of it. And yes, Ive said that a million times but it's true. Your portraits have so much personality it's insane. I'd do anything to do a trade with you. Gosh.

Thank you! That's such a wonderful thing to hear! And I would absolutely love to do an art trade with you sometime...I'd have to feel out college, and see how much work I have first, though...or maybe I could get one in before school? I'm not sure...but the option is definitely open, because I'm a fan of your art as well!

Lol, nice to hear that your family are fans of your work!
Again the colours... so pretty and bold and vivid. I love the feathers too, and the sharpness of the shadows that are cast. Nice work with the wispy mane and the haloed pattern!!

The red background really makes him stand out, especially the mane like it has some sort of glow!

lefty59 In reply to agra19 [2006-08-12 00:38:08 +0000 UTC]
Thanks! I was trying to go for the glow at first, but then after a while I decided I didn't like it anymore (fickle me)! So that's what I went back and tweaked

Glad you like it so much! I could make more prints - I'm considering offering prints of my work at...sometime in the future. But if you really would like one, you could note me, and I'll see what I can do!
