Lady

I started this drawing months ago but never completed it. I worked on it a little more but it hasn't turned out as I wanted it to do. The background isn't quite right, the horse isn't quite right. But its a learning experience.

The image is about 16 x 20 in colored pencil on Stonehenge paper.

I like the way it turned out.

There's some nice passages in it - but I think the problem might lie in the design of the value pattern. When I squint it comes out as a lot of very similar values even if the colours are different.

It does look very gentle like the horse though - so maybe it's a spiritual drawing!

Yes, you're likely right Katherine. There isn't a lot of contrast in the drawing so it looks rather bland I think. Another 'hidden in the drawer' one for future reference :)
