A blue horse
To start things off I decided to start with an old picture that I really like. Now I don't want you to think that everything I do is blue. Blue is my favorite color and I do tend to use it everywhere I can, but the fact that this lovely horse happens to be blue is just a coincidence. It is drawn with acrylics and this a picture that I did a while ago, maybe when I was 9-10, I really don't know. However it is still one of my favorites because of the simplicity and somewhat of an innocence in the painting. You can say that I got the inspiration from my elementary school art teacher (Ms.Birdy, I think that's what her name was) however her drawing looked nothing like this one. It had rainbow wavy hills and a horse eating grass in the far background. I honestly don't know how my brain turned her drawing into this, but I'm glad it did. I like that the black and white back ground makes the horse and all it's blueness stand out. Overall this drawing is not the most advanced artistically and many people wonder why it's one of my favorites. But I don't think that the most advanced drawing is always the best. Oh and also this is probably about the highest quality photos I can get because many drawings are very big and don't fit into my scanner, so I hope to make the best of a normal digital camera.
Thanks for reading,
