~Artist Comment~

- Intensity art! I wanted to upload a artwork of Intensity and Emily in the few hours left of my American time of the WRC anniversary . I love this image to death, not because Intensity is in it....okay maybe it is. I had this finished for awhile, and still have to upload Ionlanthe and Emily as well, but I'll do them later on.

~Story~

-Emily stared at the window from her bedroom. Wolf Ridge Center looked the same as it did growing up. Yes, the stable was remodeled, the house was added on and new pastures and the servalence stable were added; but Wolf Ridge...was the same as it was when Emily was growing up. Another Anniversary, another successful year. She just wished her parents were here to see everything. The success of this stable, Emily's amazing fine horses, Intensity and his...great grandfoals!?. Hard to beleive that tall muscular colt Emily found was a great grandfather.
Emily had been training Intensity, getting him into shape for his return to the dressage ring. He had had a long break over the winter, but it was now time to show Intensity back to his former glory. He quickly grew into shape. Pushing himself to his maximum capacity and getting his muscles ready and his blood pumping. His markings glew brighter everyday.
When Emily thought her stallion was ready she decided to enter him and his son, Ionlanthe, into a small spring competition. It would be Ionlanthe's first time, and it would be bareback, in a competition. She hopped intensity would help him become confident enough to perform. The two stallions were estatic. Intensity who was so thrilled to be performing again and Ionlanthe, for being with his father and his first time.
Emily was going to have her hands full.
However, Savannah agreed to come with her mother and get a break from her studies and help her with the stallions. Savannah was given Ionlanthe, cause even Emily's own daughter could never think of controlling such a strong aggressive stallion like Intensity.
When the day came, Emily got ready and saddled Intensity, who would'nt sit still and neighed loudly, hurting Emily's ears. She succedded but she was tired and Savannah led them to the ring. It was a difficult 5 mintues but they got there. Emily breathed out, like all ways she was nervous, but not as badly as she usually was. She was with her companion and she felt secure and confident in their performance ahead.

I'm sorry, I'm way to tired to write a decent critique but I'll just say something here. xD
Good job on trying out a new perspective! It's good to try new things. The rump needs to be at normal hight more though, it looks a bit like Intensity is walking up a hill. But with some practice you'll be able to draw in these perspectives and still maintain the right pose/anatomy.
The shading and tail look really good. The tail is nicely filled in and your shading is seriously improving.

Haha its okay!
Thank you! I was experimenting with different angles and when I was trying to do the background, It took me almost a hour to get the sketch right and lay out the lines But yes, I hope to get that different perspective thing down
