I collect rodeo-style drawing and I just love this composition. It is simple, yet, movement is complicated. I think you have the horses demeanor and angle perect.

Comment from Marie Strydom


This is just amazing, the time that goes into a image like this must be amazing. The detail is great and the way that you got this "angle" makes this a very powerfull image. Well done my friend, sure think this is very special. Thanks for sharing this with us. Marie Strydom

Comment from Jonathan Lane Black


Another great work of art, I wish I could draw like this, but I can't draw to save my life. I love the fact that it is an action scene, it brings the drawing to life. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from TimothyChris


Certainley an interesting piece. Nice action. Very good composition. Wish I could see more face of the rider. I admit I don't know this type of art well. But I do think it's a good piece.

    Timothy, each dot is placed by hand using a pen. The size of the dot depends on several things, the pen pressure, the type of pen used, surface accepting the ink. I hope this helps you better understand and appreciate the media and technique ... cheers... LvO
Comment from Caron


Is this technique called pointalism(?) Absolutely extraordinary to depict an animal in this obsure and difficult pose Lucien. Truly envious!

    sorry did not answer our question here it is. Yes, it is called pointallism, made famous by Suerat for one and Lucien Pissario was another painter that perfected this style/technique... take care ... LvO

Comment from Highfive


You are a very good artist, and can envision many different concepts of life, then recreate them on paper, canvas, board.etc. in excellent form. Your proportions great, creating excitement with every stroke, point, or flash.etc.
great work, again thanks for displaying your excellent talent, and ability.
highfive
