Very nice! I love the sleekness and musculature of this beautiful animal. This is something that I would definitely love to try. The eyes, nostrils the veins are perfect. I really like the background that you used as well. The color works so nicely with the Stallion.

This is very good, this guy has such a cute pony face. Very detailed with the ears and hair on the mane is well done, I would never attempt to paint an animal with acrylics and I dont think I am that good yet, I like this

Thank you, artist friend, for your encouraging review. But from your past works I believe you could do quite well painting an animal in acrylic in a short time, especially if you watch an online tutorial as I do from time to time. Thanks again.

Beautiful black colt with white splash on forehead,
Well positioned within the space and I like the side profile view.
Well rendered with such good attention to the details , well applied color and nice tonal variations that bring out the shape and structure of this colt's head and neck, I like also the mane.
You bring him to life with your creation of the eye!
Well presented! Best wishes to you in this contest!

Thank you so much, artist friend, for your fine encouraging review. I now realize that eyes are one of the most important features in animals as well as humans. Your descriptive review with the different features helps me appreciate them even more. Thanks again.
Comment from Montana Shooter
This is a lovely painting of the black stallion. The subtle changes in color give his face so much depth. I like how you showed the veins in his face. The neck shows the power of the stallion.
Very nice.

Comment from Charlotte Morse
Nice work Glena, you've painted this little guy really well.
Good detail around the ears and the eye, but especially in those veins, well seen and well painted.
There's a slight glitch on his muzzle though, possibly from copying and pasting (?) where the edges are ragged and a small chunk has gone - might be worth touching up before the contest deadline? Good luck!

Thank you for your fine review, encouraging words and informing me of the glitch. It must have happened when I uploaded. Thanks for best wishes, which I am sorry to say, that if my work were the best (such as "Mom and Newborn", according to several people) I feel I probably wouldn't win. That's okay. There are wonderful people and Tom and team on this site.

You?re welcome Glena.
But I don?t understand, why wouldn?t you win?

Excellent job Glena.
Certainly looks almost photographic with all the lines and wrinkles you expect in a horse.
great colors and a fine piece. Best of luck!

What a beautiful stallion you have brought to life on paper. You captured a sweet expression in his soulful eyes. The shading is also very good and amazing how realistic the muscle and vein contours are!

Wow Glena this is a beautiful artwork of the stallion. The proportions are very good and the full frame of the head and neck gives us a great view of the detail. You have achieved a very realistic eye and love the splash of white.
