Galloping Stallion One


5x7 charcoal drawing on paper. No color in this piece! I am so intrigued by charcoal and have gotten so many requests to do more abstract horses, that I have decided to give it a try! I only want to do horses in motion or sport with emphasis on their movement. I have already been doing horses in mixed media with ink, watercolor and pastel; but, there is something elegant about charcoal, don't you think?

  2. Thank you DJ! I want to do more horse drawings with charcoal. It is hard to keep them simple and not "over draw" them. So, I will do them very quickly and hope they turn out well! We'll see!
