I was just thinking how cool this would be as a painting! Though I love it as a drawing too It's very dark and illustrative and makes me want to know what exactly is going on with the horse, it definitely tells a story. Beautiful!

Hi Stormfeuer.
For as far as i know the kelpie is the celtic waterhorse, and the bΓ€ckahΓ€sten is the scandinavian one.
They are both supposed to lure people into the water and to cause their death.
The bΓ€ckahΓ€sten ( the white brook horse) is said to be white and the kelpie is mostly referred to as a black pony. Though there are some stories where white kelpies are mentioned.
There are many different waterhorses that are similar to the kelpie.
I also found out there is a weird story about a kelpie that happened in my surroundings. This kelpie lives on the shores of the sea. If you are interested i will try to find it again to translate it for you. It's a dutch saga.
^_^

Hi
Thanks a lot for the information. Kelpie and other creatures of sagas are so fascinating. I did not even know the kelpie is supposed to be black^^.
If it is not too much work for you I really would like to read this saga .

Really quite amazing,the lip is good,as when a real horse pulls that face it is very similar.
