Artist's Comments

So this is, or I should say, was my horse, Randy. I was working at a Barn, cleaning the stalls and for helping them out, they let me lease him for free. I took a pic of him, while I was covered in mud cause I accidentally lost my boot in the muck. :P And then I drew the pic in watercolor for a school project. It now hangs in my house and with matting and everything, it's about 3ft 4 1/2 inches long and 2ft 8 inches wide. It's my pride and joy.

watercolor on cold press.
time: roughly 2 and a half weeks. (i kicked it into high gear for an art contest XD )

Oh man, that's excellent. The level of detail is just, just, gah! *feels like such a newbie*

I especially like the texture for his fur. How did you do that? Was it just lots of attention to detail?
:iconshadowspirit2000:
It is absolutely beautiful.....and you have captured his essence too!!

Your tenderness to detail and constrasting of light makes this work jump out! I find this level of care inspiring, I hope I can do this someday. :+fav:
