Horses



This is a pen and ink that I entered into an annual competition held locally for the horse track. I've entered this competition numerous times, and this piece was the first. Because of my age at the time it went into the youth category. It got first. Sorry, some of the bottom half is cut off. It's hard to get it all in and have it viewable. I find it a rather precocious sort of composition now, and at one point had to resist the temptation to cut off and keep the top portion just for its own picture. Thank goodness for cameras. (Click top one to enlarge)


This one's from a sketch book. The horse strikes me as mysterious, and perhaps a little threatening; brooding.
