There is something especially nice about drawing horses, with their amazing musculature and gentle faces. I spent a lot of time working on this picture of Oz and I admit to enjoying every minute of it. I realized this summer that I love working on lines in my drawings; I love them so much that I often keep adding more and more lines until the picture is too dark and has lost all its definition. Something you need to learn, as an artist, is when to stop and that goes as much for my little sketch book drawings as it does for paintings.

This artwork is really good. Love your line work and your color wash really highlights the drawing. I love this style.
