Almost finished with the 2022 calendar illustration blog posts! This time, November~
I just have to start with saying I was sooooo happy to create this illustration, because there are horses in it! Needless to say, I've been extremely excited to work on my 2023 calendar, which is going to have nothing but horses featured in it!
I absolutely love drawing and painting horses. If you've read my comic diary updates you should know my very first substantial dream was to become a comic artist just so I could draw comics about them. Thus, between the age of 11 and 16, I didn't draw almost anything else but horses. To this day, they are my most favorite animal to draw (together with foxes). And of course, now I know I'm going to create at least one horse comic for real. The storyboard of the comic was finished a few years ago, but I still haven't had the time to start working on it.
Above are steps of the coloring process, below the fully finished, scanned illustration. There are still a couple of 2022 calendars left on Wonder SHOP with -50% off the regular price!
