This is what my first art challenge looks like. The first thing I did was draw a draft of the horse. My first draft was a horse jumping, but after a few hours of work I found out it was going to look up to the standard I wanted. After the draft I was happy with what the horse looks like. On the real project I started with my horse's face. Then I made the neck and feeding trough. After I got all the drawing done I started giving the picture some color. As I was adding color I used a clean kleenex to smooth away most of the color pencil lines, other then for the feeding trough to give a wood feel to it.
