Look what the Sonoran wind just blew in!

Thanks and no worries Dark  I feel like your last paint-over will give me tons to go to school with.

As for proportion on this one (your eye is serving you well) — though I definitely played around with it all over this piece.

So for the center horse/unicorn (I think is the one you're referring to) — I was indeed going for a larger draft/shire horse — BRED WITH A UNICORN. 

I thought it made a good focal point in the center and popped a little brighter lighting on it.

Draft and shire horses have the feathering around the hooves that really sets them apart.  The other white horse is an Arabian which are lighter and smaller and a lot quicker.

I saw an awesome video a few years back (that I couldn't find just now) of HUGE Russian draft horses bred to haul lumber.  THEY ARE MASSIVE and it was one of the coolest animal videos I've seen!

Here are some pics of some BIG'UNS










Ok so I just looked and found this vid of a giant draft horse pulling lumber at a competition.  The music is HORRIBLE but the horse is a BEAUT!



Anywho — thanks again Dark

I'm working on several new pieces and hope to be able to post something soon.
