horses? horses.

On the weekend I found this super cheap book of good stock horse photos, so I've been trying to figure them out! Next weekend I'm going looking for some live horses to draw! I don't know anybody who owns one(do you perhaps?), so I suppose I'll head out to the local equestrian club, and hit up some road-side paddocks out Brookfield way!



And because they're great, here are some things by Théodore Géricault and Rosa Bonheur! I love those big Shires and Pecherons.

  1. Oh GOD, FINALLY. It eez abooout freeekingk time you updated your blog Alexis! Worth the wait though matey. I think my favourite is the second horse in the second panel. It has a gorgeous expression and posture while the treatment is rich and masterful. -Such- a lovely sketch. I wanna print it out and clag tape it over my dog's face. Random cat's paw in the first panel comes in at a close second favourite.

    You're a winner!! More blog posts! More! Again! Again! *RUSSIAN GYMNASTICS TEACHER*
