Even a well-planned piece can take you in a direction that changes your composition, too. *ahem* I've certainly had that happen to me, anyway! ;)<br /><br />Enjoying the silvery feel to this!Xan's Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09257800798767359179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31268332.post-22456866979145676042010-02-04T21:40:11.934+00:002010-02-04T21:40:11.934+00:00Thank you Elizabeth:D He does actually look wistfu...Thank you Elizabeth:D He does actually look wistful doesn't he - definately a touch of sadness about him:)<br /><br />Hi Brandy, I think it's going to be a choice between 'contemplation' and 'wistful' - will sleep on it for a couple of days:D<br /><br />Thank you Teresa:D<br /><br />Hi Xan and thank you:D There is actually a bit more of horse and space at the bottom - I had to cut a bit of when cropping in Photoshop as it wasn't straight:) <br /><br />I perhaps could have added more to the bottom on hindsight, but I felt it more important for there to be enough space in front of his face as this is the direction in which he is gazing and didn't want the viewers eye to come to an abrupt end and. Think I still have a lot to learn with composition:DLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17965272647048231298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31268332.post-91879939568752693702010-02-04T19:45:46.470+00:002010-02-04T19:45:46.470+00:00I love the soft, dreamy feel to this.

I find myself wishing there were just a little room below the horse's chin, and a touch above the ears as well. Maybe it got cut off in the photo. There's a sort of tipping feeling in the horse's body, giving just a little tension, which is good, I think. Keeps it from being static or dull. And there's room in front of his/her face, so one doesn't feel like s/he is going to walk into a wall. It's just that bit of crowding at the chin ...<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your GORGEOUS work with us! I come to learn!!Xan's Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09257800798767359179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31268332.post-57868748098938402882010-02-03T15:49:00.179+00:002010-02-03T15:49:00.179+00:00It's a beautiful drawing.
