Horse: AVS Volcanic Ash

Handler: Faith Lehane

Event: Ober Winter Countdown - Art Challenge

Fourth Week Prompt: Winter is truly coming. The meadow is frosty and white in the mornings and the handlers are probably sipping a cup of hot , sweet tea before or after stable duties. But what is their favorite tea?

(Draw a decorative headshot of your Obertaurer, framed or decorated with herbs , spices and fruits that are the ingredients of their owner's favorite tea. As simple as the tea might be, theres always a way to arrange elements in a decorative manner)

Faith isn't really much of a tea drinker. But she loves a toasty mulled cider - especially when the recipe is spiced up with a little rum just before serving. Of course, she always monitors her beverage consumption if she is going to be around the horses - she knows her limits.
This prompt's frame has apples (of course - it's cider), along with some lovely flavor enhancements & garnishes - sliced oranges, cranberries, cloves, cinnamon sticks and anise stars. The perfect recipe for everyone to enjoy (adults can add their own rum as desired - aka not pictured). A nice little waft of spiced steam finishes off the portrait frame. [How do you draw steam, IDK?]

My schedule probably won't permit me to finish all of the prompts for the event, but still wanted a chance to draw my boy participating in some sort of seasonal cheer - and of course I had to start backwards (with my favorite prompt). Not to mention, an art challenge is a great opportunity to push myself on painting new items/textures.

Lots of random internet refs for the fruit/spices, but no one specific image used.
