Artist's Comments

This is NOT A PHOTO (since a lot of people seem to think my drawings are photos lol. I love doing that :XD: rofl).

Anyway, I FINISHED IT!!! :boogie:

I kinda decided to do this pic as part of the "100 Theme Challenge." I was looking for something that would fit the theme for "Love," and this picture came to mind :D. Here's where to go to find the challenge: [link]

Yeah. This took about three months, give or take :dead:.

I'm pleased with how it turned out :). I rushed the background again, but it doesn't look too shabby at least. The picture is of *DustysDarkRyder's two horses Janati and Du Shane. Janati is the Arabian. Du Shane is the Appaloosa.

I'm really excited about this one. I went totally OCD on the two horses. I also love the pose, so that helped. I'll say one thing though: it's going to be a while before I do another horse that even resembles a black horse lol. The blending on Du Shane gave me a run for my money!
