These are my responses to the 2020 prompts for the Equestria Daily annual Artist Training Grounds! There's supposed to be a "Newbie" to the front but I removed it just because. As with my response for prompt 10, my response for prompt 20, "Pony breaking out", is a larger-than-normal submission. My own reading of the prompt is "Pony/Person breaking out of character". That person is Principal Celestia, who here reveals her semi-secret identity as a motorcyclist. She is riding a 1964 Harley-Davidson Duo-Glide superbike, customised with "ape-hanger" tall handlebars.

The original idea for Celestia being a biker came from KorenCZ11 , whose artwork and request inspired me to depict Celestia as a biker. It would not make sense for Princess Celestia to come across the portal and suddenly have good driving skills, so I had Principal Celestia take up the mantle of biker empress. I like the idea so much, so this is now my headcanon for the Principal. XD
