Description I changed the title of this piece, not one of my best works.
14 x 17
0.7mm 2B
Bristol Vellum, if I remembered right

The horse's name is Blue, he was rescued by my friend's father just before he was sent to the slaughter house.

As for the horse's neck, some of you mentioned, is just it's true color. The horse is not pure black, he has some white dots under his neck and belly

Please excuse the quality, that's the best I can get from my camera.

What I learned from this piece: if you can't think of a good enough background, it's better not to have one at all

All critisisms are welcomed.

I really like the eyes, they have such emotion in them like this horse has seen much pain. I also like how the light shines on the mane.

amazing!
i once drew a horse like this, facing the opposite way for AP Art in 9th grade. and the one thing they told me in the critique was, "the face is too short."

which i know, is complete BS. the whole class started to rant off on how all horses have long faces. more BS. i kept quiet only because i was the shyest and youngest in the class. till this day, it hangs above my desk. i am very proud of it. it is one of my many pieces that is viewed wrongly of by other artist.

Well, I think as long as the artist likes the way it is, they shouldn't give a crap on what people think

phan-tom [2008-09-17 03:07:50 +0000 UTC]

I think it's an excellent piece. I think everything works really well, with the minor exception of the neck. The neck just doesn't seem to match the rest of the drawing.

LordAvatarZ In reply to phan-tom [2008-09-17 04:46:22 +0000 UTC]

Could you explain? I just thought the background doesn't match anything

You cans see the fine little hairs on the horse everywhere else. but the neck.

LordAvatarZ In reply to phan-tom [2008-09-17 13:38:06 +0000 UTC]

Oh, hahahha. Yeah, the hair on his neck looks really rough and not as detailed at all in the original

Maybe it's not your best, but I think it's one of your better ones. Fantastic job. The neck looks a bit odd, but I'm assuming it's just because the horse is a blue roan?

LordAvatarZ In reply to Chaldemone [2008-09-17 04:50:55 +0000 UTC]
