Description I wanted to try another head shot, and I'm pretty happy with the way this one turned out. It was easier than the last one because of the horse's lighter coat. Either that or I'm getting better at this. Who knows?

This is a 9x12, drawn with 2H - 8B pencils. Here's my reference, kindly provided by : [link]

Yes, but I suppose it just depends on the horse and the particular sport. In the hands of a capable rider, it's not a problem.

that makes me really happy to hear, because it's true, and i hate when the photographer takes all the credit when they are doing alot less than what the rider does

don't like to be up my self, but i know how hard it can be because i ride myself, and there is so much you have to do to give a perfect shot like that... of corse the photographer does alot as well, they have to be able to place the photo perfectly and time it at awesome and amazing skillinessness, and focas it right and all that stuff but still

Oh, I ride too! That's cool.

Yep - it takes two; the rider to create the moment, the photographer to capture it.

This is really cool. The detail is amazing and the eye looks like you spent a lot of time on it. It's really good

Define-X In reply to eat-ride-listen [2012-01-18 00:21:01 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Yes - the eye is my favorite part. I always draw it last; that's when I feel the horse come to life, and it just feels wrong to "bring it to life" when it's only half-finished.
