Horse's Head Study WIP


Whilst out in the country side near to home a few days ago, I met a young rider who very kindly let me photograph her horse, I have a couple of full body shots which I may draw later but wanted to first attempt a head study as I've never drawn a horse before except when I was 3 1/2 years old ( see earlier posting) what you see here is the progress I've made after approx 12 hours, size is 7.5 x 5 inches on Bristol Board, all comments welcome.

Hi Grahame, what a outstanding work, your drawings are gorgeous and I agree with her...so realistic!

Thank you Dors, it has scanned a little lighter than the drawing but I will correct that at the next posting.
