Description Lori (Lothlorien, the filly) loves to jump, and if her rider, Logan, leaves this jump set up in her paddock she will just jump it for fun all the time, which is a big help because otherwise she'll probably jump the fence instead. Logan is training her to show jump so he's jumped ON her a lot...but he often comes to play with her loose in her paddock, and today he decided to see what it was like to do the horse's job. I guess she thought that was pretty weird to see her human jumping. These two have become really good friends, so I wanted to draw them having fun together. I also decided to draw a picture where it's not sunny, which is very unusual for me, but I actually like using cooler colours a lot. Also, I don't know why I chose such a terrible pose for Logan to be in! I redrew his pose about twenty times.

Referenced from [link] by ~swillowness , plus dozens of different pictures of jumping people... If you are bored, google people jumping and hurdling to make you laugh.

This looks great! I love Lori's shading, and you did a great job on Logan's position.
I also really like how you did the background. They're always so difficult to draw.

Thank you so much! Hearing that makes all the time I spent on the poses and background feel worthwhile.

This is fab I love everything from the idea of horse and rider messing around in the paddock to the way you've executed it!

his jumping pose looks pretty good, not easy to draw a human that way ^^
Would be fun to see them jump together hehe. Oh and great background work <3

Thank you, I'm so happy to hear that! Soon I want to enter them in a jumping show together, I just need to find one that's easy since it would be Lori's first show.

This is great! It is such a fun picture. Lori is so pretty, I love how you shaded her! How you drew Logan's pose looks awesome, it really shows how he is jumping. The background is also really good, I love how the grass looks kind of soft.

Thanks so much! What a relief to hear Logan's pose worked out. And I tried a sort of new grass technique and really liked it, so I'm glad you like it too!
