Mailart 365 has moved
Thanks for visiting Mailart 365. This site is an archive of mailart produced by artists doing mailart 365 from December 2010 to August 2016. As of July 2016, we moved to a new and more modern site at www.mailart365.com. Come on over and check us out there023 - Year of the Horse
It is Tết (Vietnamese New Year) here in Hanoi and this year this marks the start of the year of the horse. I went into horse drawing mode today and here's the first. I found this piece really hard as the sleek lines of the horses legs are quite hard to get right. I went through lots of points where I thought "GAH! HORRIBLE!", but I had to silence the internal critic long enough to complete it. It was only when I added the dust lines that I can say I was really happy with it.

Love this one! The line of continual text/hoove sounds and the dust really make it!!!

It's a striking one that works really well. Glad you stuck at it.

Thanks both. I was really surprised with how difficult horse legs are to draw. So knobbly and in all the places you least expect! I have a new appreciation for the talent of horse artists
