Connaught Art

Hello!

Not sure that this belongs here rather than Off Course, but the rider/horse are eventers so I figured I would place this here. :)

Normally I plan what I'm going to draw ahead of time, but for this one, I was just flipping through some older Practical Horseman's, saw this cover, and just knew I had to draw it haha. The quality is not very good in the photos, my camera does not like to cooperate when photographing drawings! Minor details were destroyed in the photo, in my final scan I'll make sure all those are visible, but you can see it in the actual drawing. ;)

I'm thinking that when it's done, I'll have a copy of it made, and send it to Phillip? I don't want anything for it of course, but do you think that it would be a nice surprise/random "gift" thing?
