A proud horse with a big, wavy mane and tail on a plain background — color it any way you like. Medium — best for kids.
A plain background is an invitation. First decide who this proud horse is: a realistic black beauty, a golden palomino, or a full fantasy — teal coat, purple mane, why not. The big wavy mane and tail take shading beautifully, so work light to dark and leave the top curves of each wave lightest.
Then build the world around it. You can leave the background clean for a portrait look, or draw in a fence, rolling hills, stars, or a stable door. Because the horse itself is uncluttered, almost any setting works — this is the page to print twice and try two completely different ideas.
