This was one of my favorite subjects for drawing when I was a child. I loved horses - I drew them, wrote stories about them, and played "horses" on the playground at Pawnee Elementary School! I know, it sounds like I may have been horse crazy, but honestly, I think I have always thrown myself into what I love - no matter what it is! So, tonight, I am getting back to my roots with a twist - pen and ink. As a child, my favorite tool was graphite pencils or charcoal - never pens. After all, you can't erase pen marks!! Now, I am enjoying the rich, dark marks made with pen and ink, and the vintage flavor this age old medium lends to the drawing. I need to do more horses, until I become completely comfortable with them. This drawing makes 1112 in 1112 days and
Day 19 in the 30 Day Painting Challenge!
