A commissioned piece of a foal (colt) a few hours after he was born... such a wonderful piece to work on! The real challange in this was retaining the gorgeous wrinkles in the fur of the little newborn.
Wow Caroline this is exquisite. Excellent pencil work...love the details and the nice dark tones.
Artist Reply: Thank you Laura, Pencils are my favourite medium so I'm appreciative of your compliment. The dark tones where created using a water soluble 8b pencil...
