Another experimental piece, line work, marker and watercolor, together at last! This turned out to be quite a collage of mediums but I wanted to see how my Prismacolor markers would look agains a painted backdrop. I thought that acrylic might be a bit too much for the eyes to take in so I went with watercolor. Unfortunately I only had water color pencils, not my favorite way to use the medium. Horses are one of the most difficult animals to draw, and as I said in an earlier post, understand anatomy first or at least use some kind of reference photo. This piece however really just started out as a sketch, even the paper that was used was from a scrap pile, maybe 2 ft by 6 in. I'm not exactly sure, the piece belongs to someone else now. The color and design for the horses was partially inspired by the Beatles Yellow Submarine movie.
