My Beloved Horseby ~beckerooz

Traditional Art / Mixed Media / Animals & Plants

Homework assignment for my intro to drawing class, expanding on the studio drawing [link]

This is in conversation with Franz Marc's painting, Yellow Horses [link]

I changed it around to make it Rif Raf, my childhood horse that passed away from colic several years ago. She was the kindest, sweetest, most loving horse ever. She was always so in tune to people, and always wanted to be part of the action. [link]

18x24
Media used: black sumi ink; white, brown, and black pastels; light charcoal; instant coffee (in two dilutions); tea; terra cotta derwent pencil

I'm so sorry to hear that. Your piece is very moving and beautiful. I have never seen anything with your style before, very original!

~beckerooz May 18, 2008

thanks so much! I've never used mixed media like this before, and I must say it was a blast!

~anastaserose May 18, 2008

That's awesome

The mixed media really give it an extra special appeal

~Splashie May 18, 2008

I like the shading and colors of this piece

I'm sorry to hear about Rif Raf, though she passed a few years ago; she sounds like an amazing horse

~beckerooz May 18, 2008

thanks so much! and thanks for the fav

Yea, she was such a great animal. She got ill and died about 3-4 days after... it was really sudden and I was crying the most I've ever cried for a week straight. At least I have wonderful memories of her.

~Splashie May 18, 2008

You're most welcome

I would imagine. I read it was colic...that's horrible how it can just come on without warning and in certain cases be so hard or near impossible to treat

But yes, the memories are great

I was really depressed after my dog, Rajah, passed, but I still tell stories about him, and they always make me happy
