The reference photo actually has a rider in it but after quite some lengthy amount of time on such a small piece of paper I gave up and removed him entirely from the piece. I do not think it hurts the final one in any way.

Traveler- Ball Point Pen
My daughters pony Traveller was a welsh gelding who lived with us for many years teaching my Appaloosa mare "horsey" manners. He was such a grand old gentleman. AS you can imagine, with a mane like that, he got a few braids!!

Wild Stallion Ball Point Pen
I have been tinkering about using the simple ball point pen to create some new pieces. At first I started it on a whim as a challenge on a FB page I am part of, but I have to admit I am enjoying the challenge of the medium. Keep an eye out for new pieces as I am beginning to fill up my sketch book!
I have been creating art since I could hold a pencil and I sold my first painting when I was nine years old.
I strive to create animal portraiture that captures the essence of the individual.
