I think it would be great if everyone posted a photo of their (or any favourite) horse so we could all try to paint someone else's. What do you think????
It would be good to try to revive this group.

Hey, the COOL group, I own a Paint show gelding who has been very successful in the 2 years that we have been showing. He is so much fun and just a wonderful guy, I should probably post a picture of him, eh?

Hi just joined this group, I have a Fell pony - a rare breed which originates from Cumbria in England. Unfortunately he has malignant sarcoids which are very agressive. He is well in himself at the moment but he may only live for a year or a few months. I am hoping to send him to a retirement/rescue home as I am unable to look after him and he can no longer be ridden. I am not physically well enough now otherwise I would do this myself. He is only 11 years old which is so young for a native pony. So instead of riding horses now I paint and draw them!!

Like many of you I can't remember a time when I haven't drawn horses. In fact they often jump out of a pen with no thought from me when I'm on the phone.

Hay all. I ajust saddled up with group today and will try to get some drawings posted soon. I have mixed feelings about horses. They are noble animals. They are sometimes things of beauty and sometimes not. I rode some when I was very young.
Both my daughters rode and Dad was the usual convenient hitching post. So for many years I was "upclose" with horses. So I decided to join this group to see how well my memory serves and my pencil translates. Regards, Norm

Karen,
A couple of tips I can give you is firstly, never give up what you love to do! If you love drawing horses then keep on drawing them. The other tip I can offer is... I have always found that it helps to look at lots and lots of photographs of whatever I want to draw. I have to do this because I am absolutely hopeless drawing anything straight out of my head. If I were to paint a horse straight out of my head... well... rest assured.... it wouldn't look anything like a horse at all! LOL
Cheers,
Megan
