Description
I hope this doesn't display terribly.This was a color commission I completed for a girl I went to high school with! It's her horse, Dakota.
He's an appaloosa! Which I think is totally cool.
I really enjoyed working on it, and she seemed to love the end result, so I'd say I'm pretty pleased with it, too! C:

It is watermarked, because it belongs to the commissioner. Please be respectful of my work!

This is incredibly beautiful! I love the details there! I worked on a drawing of me riding a horse last Summer and it looks similar to this! Patchy at the back and solid colours in front but cute.

Love this! The color is absolutely gorgeous, it really pops out of the page and I love that it's the first thing I notice rather than the background ( Which is wonderful as-well, the focus is just spot on) May I ask what type of paper you used? The drawing it self just seems so smooth O.o
