Description I haven't drawn a unicorn in a while so I decided it was time...

This is dedicated to all of my friends and watchers who love Horses and Unicorns. I hope you like it.

Thank you to for letting me use one of her beautiful photos as reference for this. artsy50.deviantart.com/art/Ang…

Colored pencils on 140 lb. Strathmore Mixed media paper, with a bit of black and white Sharpie paint pen.

Thanks in advance for any faves and kind comments. They are, as always, greatly appreciated!

Thank you kindly. You too can do this, really! Just takes practice. There is a colored pencil tutorial in my gallery if you're interested. I even used a horse as my example. I peeked at your gallery and noticed you like horses. I've loved horses since I was 5, and that's a very looong time, lol!Β  Keep drawing! ______

Okay I'll sure check it out. I can draw the horses and take their pics, but I lack in the coloring department! lol

Oh yes! Horses are my life, they make me feel complete Β

You just need to put the colored pencil to paper and go. I'm sure with practice you'll do fine. Let me see how you do.

You have inspired me to try my hand at unicorns too, so much fun!!!
Who knew drawing could be so satisfying ?

Great. I'm awaiting your next post!

Unicorns are always fun. So much you can do with them as since they are fantasy, just about anything goes. Let your mind take wing!

Glad I could inspire you!

I have loved drawing since I was 5. So that makes it almost 50 years that I've been drawing. Wow, I'm old! lol!

I just now started to really draw, I always thought I sucked so I quit and when I got back into it, I guess it just clicked. Now I have a new love, next to writing and riding }

I will sure keep you posted. Thanks for the support Β
