Arabian in Graphite

Here's a little pencil drawing I came across hiding in one of my drawing pads. One of the things I love about graphite is it is so much faster than prismacolors. It is now kept safely in a Itoya folder.

Colored Pencil Drawing Update


Here's what I have so far on my Scribbles drawing. I am not quite satisfied with the bosal quite yet, but there is a few things I can still do to it. I have started blocking in her muzzle and forelock. Her mane and neck will most likely be the last thing I do, because it will have to be careful and tedious work since the hair is all white. There is also a chance I might change the reins up that attach to the curb bit. I might change them to romals. Here's a close up:

Colored Pencil WIP





It has been a long time since I have worked in colored pencil, and I really enjoy it so much. This is a friends paint mare that I took a picture of specifically for this drawing. I usually do the tack first, then the eye and then the rest of the horse. Sorry that the picture is not great it was show with a zoom lense that has a macro feature and I couldn't get far enough away from it.
