Running horse

In the analytical sketching class, we spent some time drawing animals and I was pleased that the results showed improvement. Here is a horse I sketched on a pre-painted background. I recycled this page I did not like. First I attempted to draw a portrait with ballpoint pen - because I saw so much gorgeous sketches made with pen that I decided to try, too. Disaster! But being stubborn. I did not want to rip the page off.
I covered the mishaps with paint and moved on. I do like the horse!
