Description Eeeek! Tis Christmas time again! And that means gifties to all my very special friends who mean the world to me and make dA such a fantastic place!

Merry Christmas Amelia!

This goes out to the super fantastic who has been such an AWESOME friend to me this year! She always makes me laugh with her randomness and insanely cute emotes that I always steal! She's such a fantastic person, a real tough cookie and you can always count on her to be there when you need someone! I decided to draw her gorgeous Zeake sliding across the ice. Except, he's not too sure of what it is! And his brakes don't work on the ice either, so there he goes, sliding across the ice...

Oh, you're so sweet Dana! Merry Christmas to you too, my dear friend. <3

OHMGODGOTYOURCARDINTHEMAILTODAYTOO!!!!! Thankyou so much! I love recieving things in the mail, and I got it, I got it, I got it! Thankyou so much, Dana!

Hahaha! Look at my beautiful baby boy Zeake! He's all: "I go to the Alps (big mountain range) hoping to find some nice snow-mares, and what's this? O_O WHAT'S HAPPENING??!?!! This stuff is so cold under my feet! And so slippery! WHOA!!! Not what I had in mind at all!!! "

I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT! His pose is awesome, and it's awesome that you so perfectly caught Zeake's little meepy self in there, whilst being the beeeeeeeeggg sexiful stud that he is...

Thankyou so much, Dana. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Hehe aw i'm so glad you like him! And I'm super happy that you got your card!! I was getting a bit worried, some people got theirs like 3 days after I sent them, and others a good few days! Hehe aw Zeakey was AWESOME to draw, even his brindles! It was fun messing around with them until I finally got them right! I learnt something new! Haha oh yes, the Alps were meant to be full of gorgeous mares, and instead its cold and slippery! Maybe we'll send him to Hawaii next year!

Yus yus yus! its like your avvy, which is awesome! So full of christmas cheer
lmao yeah, that way he'd be in a more climatized atmosphere and be all sexily spunked and short Summer hair for the ladies... He's great to draw, isn't he? You can go wild with brindles, and the more you do them, the better they get and it's not over the top at all!!!

Aww this is great! I love the position! I drew a horse sliding across the ice a few days ago. Some day, I want to see some traditional art from you. I have never seen any of your traditional artwork.

And I am hoping to have some gifts, but not until after Christmas...

Aw thank you dear! Hehe I'm not much good with horses and traditional art, I usually only do people and still lifes! But maybe one day I'll do some horses by hand!
