I am a huge fan of ink and pointillism. You did a great job on the use of lightness and darkness in areas. I wish it was a little bit darker around the smaller horse to make it stick out a little bit more, but it is very good and I think you should keep up the good work. Thank you.

    thinking of offering the two Arabians on cards, what do you think?
reply by Diannatilley on 17-Apr-2006
    I think they would make wonderful cards Lucien. I also think I would start maybe making some greeting cards with nice little sentiments in them....I know I would love them. We horse people love horse birthday cards, christmas cards..you name it...we buy it...Calenders...
    Cheers to you!

Your ink drawing of this Arabian Mare truly expresses your enjoyment and excellence in this area of art as you combine the two portrayals of this mare in one illustrated art rendering. Your achieved shadowing effects through your method is very commendable in defining this mare as outlining is well noted as a focus to me. The entire composition comes together very well. Thank you for sharing your art with me.

Wonderful detail. The expression on the close up is exquisite. I admire both your skill and your patience in utilizing dots. That's quite impressive.

Excellent use of the pen. Attention to detail is outstanding. I like the use of the image at the bottom to enhance the overall composition

Awesome value on this piece! Your pointillism is just excellent! I also love that you incorporated the full body horse underneath the portrait of it. Great job!

    Yes, let me know. I'm always interested. Its been hard for me to get my art going. Only recently have I put my art out to the public. Havent sold a whole lot, but that doesnt mean I wont. I think its finding the right button to push. I keep hoping and pushing. Its something Ive always reallt wanted, so... Always, H.
Comment from Dazzleme


Very nice. I love this black and white artist drawing. Your composition of this is excellent. I also like your technique of having the whole horse profile in the foreground. Totally adds character to this.
