Inspired by the quote:

"...without wisdom, imagination is a cruel taskmaster."
from the book The Shack by William P. Young.

This has been my work for this spring break. It took many, many hours. 0_o
Yes, I did use a reference for the horse.
The picure was taken against out lovely kitchen linolium floor, in case you're wondering.

I named the horse Suzanna. I have no idea why, I just think she needed a name.

Used acrylic paints and paint marker and.. umm.. pen (of some forgotten brand that ran out of ink just as I was finishing up) on an 18x24" canvas panel.

Umm don't use this. For anything. It belongs to me. Not that I can think of anything anyone would want to use this for...

Edit: Ugh! I keep on trying to full view this picture and my computer WON'T LET ME!!! Is this just my computer or all computers?

Stairs going to heaven,
and hours of waiting the death,
but life is stronger than ever,
when you feel it will leave you there,
and trust your instincts and actions,
and live longer than death,
beacuse when death calls you down,
wisdome shall rise.

Thanks!

i can full view it just fine, and it is gorgeous
it's a pity that the photo quality is so-so, because the little background details look really amazing. good job on the horse, too :D

For me, full view works too ^^
And it's huge ._. Now I can see all the details (the carrot XD)
I think you did a really great job, especially with the horse! Even with references, I think it's still hard to draw them and get the proportions and all their muscles and sinews right ^^
The picture has a certain flair I really like!
:iconanti-ignoramus:
Thanks! Yeah, it is huge. I wanted to show off all of the details :)

Yes, I like my carrot. I was starting to go out of my mind with running out of stuff to doodle but wanting to be done...
Thank you! It's been years since I have tried to draw a horse. I gues a bit of it came back to me as I worked.
