An awesome pointillism drawing with wonderful details and interesting movement LvO! I'm amazed with your skill and patience to be able to draw something made up of so many tiny dots! The wording and font used work well. My only suggestions would be to clean up the uneven perimeter edges. And it looks like some of the text lines on the word RODEO were somehow lost on the left side of each character (especially on the R, the D and the E). Otherwise, a great looking logo with an truly excellent horse/rodeo drawing! :)

Another nice design Lucien
Your dedication to the horse is very apparent as the quality of the work is finished and polished.
You have a very good command of this medium.
Great job.

I like this pencil drawing a great deal. It is very real. I think I have reviewed something like that before. The shadowing is well balanced. Nice work.

Comment from JOANNE WOOLLEY


This is a great technique you have used for the cowboy and horse, very effective. I think there should be a more definite divide between the man and horse though, they seem to blend. Also, to keep the continuity, I think you should have kept the writing at the bottom the same as the Rodeo at the top. Very exciting pose this has, like the action going on, well done, Joanne:)
