Artist's Comments
After my latest horse I knew I had to draw another horse, in charcoal. I thought it would be nice to try and mix a horse with a girl. I used the same horse as model for my last one, only a darker version of her. As model for the girl I used a picture of a girl from my forum, Jeanine but changed here features and expression a little. I wanted her to look innocent and light against the beautiful dark horse. I originally intended dark skies but as I drew the sky I felt it looked much better with a grey sky with a bit of light near the earth.
My biggest concern was not being able to make it look natural with the 2 different subjects coming together in 1 piece but I think it went alright with how the light falls and such. I tried to give the horse a bit structure looking like small hairs rather than making it all soft like the skin of the girl. I am happy how this turned out, it has a certain mood I think. Made with soft charcoal. 30x40cm (12x16")  Prints available here: [link]By the lake Copyright © Zindy S. D. Nielsen. Do not copy, re-produce or use without written permission.

Art isn't always visual...
Overall, the technical work is lovely. I would suggest studying some compositions of people with horses to get the proportions down.
Thanks for sharing.
