Description Done for a friend of her fav mare who recently had to be euthanized due to a severe case of laminitis, they did everything to make Odette better but it wasnt enough; they even got her a donkey companion. RIP Odette. You will be missed!

First traditional piece I've done for months, it felt weird but I'm kinda happy with how this turned out...I don't like the neck much though, I rushed that a bit.
