Description
One week left until Spring Break....only one....one...Anyway, here is some more fluff art untill I can work on my more substantial projects. (Someday, I would really like to work on those elusive drawings....)
I should really branch out and try something other than horses with these designs. Unfortunately, horses are about the only thing I feel comfortable drawing right off the cuff, and every single one of these designs is an "off the cuff drawing". The color was done with Prismacolor pencils rather than marker this time, so I could blend more easily.
(it was going to be the four horses of the apocalypse, but I ran out of paper...)

Beautiful color and detail. It is a great piece.
Sorry to hear about your computer. Sorry too to hear about your fall. I shattered my tail bone once falling from a horse. That was many years ago and it still bothers me. I hope that you feel better.

Thanks!
I'm actually walking without getting to many weird looks and sitting in most of the positions I could before the fall....I had lulled myself into a sense of security...hadn't fallen in YEARS and got cocky...ha ha.

I know the feeling. When that accident happened, I was riding with my father. There were some vultures up in a tree. I got a strange feeling, like we should not continue but he said that I was being a chicken. We did not see the 3 vultures that were in the tall grass infront of us. They flew up, his lines broke and his horse took off fast for home. I was thrown onto the neck of mine, had no control and threw myself off of mine before he hit the road...I bounced on a few rocks in the grass.
I shrugged off the pain but I rarely can sit for long periods of time without some good accupuncture.

Ah! I'm so sorry! I've got a friend who broke his tailbone as well...he came down on the back of the saddle when his horse bucked. Is riding hard for you now? It seems like it must be!

It is ok. I live in NYC so I do not ride so much anymore. I do miss it very much. Bareback is ok, but for short periods of time. Long car rides are hard and long movies too. I just have to shift my weight from time to time from one side to the other or if I can, sitway back on the upper pelvis instead of sitting normal on the tailbone.

What does 'equus' mean? My mate uses this phrase as a nickname and I like it...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It is the Latin name for the horse genus. The domesticated horse's scientific name is Equus caballus.

This design has a very intense feeling too it. Even the writing blends in perfectly with the horses. Exellent work!

I LOVE THIS!
It is such a great piece with the intricate design... at first I thought it was one horse (the red), then I saw the head of the yellow 'till I finally saw the orange.... I really like the kind of things when they make you think and you did it! And Spring Break is really near so hang in there and soon you'll be off!

Lovely horses as if leaping from the fire. Once can imagine the chariot they must pull and the rider who will bare their mark

Very neat, there's a lot of lines and curves that draw the eye in.

Thank you! I've always found these random designs to be relaxing to draw. It's almost like working a puzzle, trying to fit the lines and curves together.

Very interesting design, they look somewhat like the horses I saw engraved on some ancient celtic coins.

Just to avoid misinterpretations... I'm saying their design reminds me of *generic* celtic horse design, because they used to stylize horses in a polished and dynamic way, as you did here.
