This one's a whinnnnner! LOL, love how you've brought the character out even more than in the original photo. :)
Only critique would be to touch a bit of that light blue sky to the far of his nose/face area to round him off a bit.
Great job Te!

I like your Mikey, TeAnne:):)

[TeAnne]

Thank you everyone. :D Michaels photo of the horsey can be seen at the cafe. :) I made him bigger than the photo and it seemed to take ages.

Sandi, :) in the original there is a hint of blue, I made sure I put it in but the scanner washed it off. I even had to cut some of the pic off cos of that damn yellow line I have down the side. grrrrrrrrr
This pic is similar to a photo you sent me of kissing horsey :D

I think his mouth area could be worked more actually. Not real happy with that. I love his nostril. ehhehe I used an eraser on there and the cheek. Also for his whiskers I used a knife :evil:

So this is where your hiding, i've only discovered this forum now, shows how much i look around the site lol :D :D, another great piece of art TeAnne, excellent. :clap: :clap:

[TeAnne]

Thanks Hugh :) Glad you like the horsey, don't know if Michael has seen yet. Ahhhhhhhh you found me/us. Isn't this one of the greatest places?

[TeAnne]

This fella is going into a show. :evil:

TeAnne...I really like your drawing!! I will take a look again at the original photo.......but I think you really captured the shapes (as they appear in the unusual perspective of the photo. Mikey's left eye (the one that appears on the right-hand side of your drawing, is done VERY nicely. I think, because the perspective was exaggerated due to the photo...his right eye..would be the more difficult one to capture. Nice job TeAnne.

If you won't mind, can I show your drawing to Mikey's owner (Cathy)?? She will surely enjoy seeing your work. Would you mind if I copy your drawing..and send it in an email to Cathy?

She will be very surprized and pleased I'm sure!!!!!! :)

[TeAnne]

Thanks Michael, I loved the eyes too, so I worked on them till they looked right. Thank god you say it worked. :) By all means, please show the lady. :) I hope she likes. I am in the process of doing one on black paper now. (New stuff I found)
