Description *the blandness of the original scan was too white, didn't give the colors justice*

Prelude. Finally!
He is the horse that casts snowflake/shimmering from his mane and tail. Since he does such, A winter type of background is needed. I wanted to create this subtle winter feel. There is still grass, yet the northern lights suggest winter.
I keep imagining him with northern lights in the background.. to tie into that little bit of magic he has. I hope to get better at drawing them.

Colored pencil
art markers
gel pen

Enjoy

Absolutely stunning work with the sky and the horse! Your whole gallery is full of gorgeus pics like this but this one really caught my eye with thecontrast of dark and bright colours and horse's motion.
