New Graphite pencil drawing of horses


I needed another pencil drawing to bring along to work on during "wait" times. Since working with graphite requires minimal equipment, it is perfectly suited for my grab-and-go sittings.

I'll be leaving for 3 weeks for a well deserved trip across the Eastern US with our final destination being Fl. An exciting stop along the way will be at the US Pentagon to meet and visit with one of my clients and his K9 partner Kira. Many of you will remember the US Pentagon portrait with the police k9's I worked on last winter...it is not often that I get to meet my online clients so this will be a nice surprise for all of us.

See you all soon and keep on painting!

  4. Oh la-la! I can't wait to see this one done. It's already looking great! The peacock and Sheppard commission are great also, but you know me, I'm partial to horses.
