Monochrome Pencil Horse Sketch!

Hello to all.  I was inspired to do a 

 bit of freehand sketching yesterday afternoon by a challenge on Splitcoaststampers.   

I have drawn a horse using an HB pencil.    

It was loads of fun to create this and add depth and shadow with the pencil.

I used the Spectrum Noir Premium Pencil Paper and it was fabulous to sketch on. Blending was done with my finger and it all smudged beautifully!

The picture looks a bit blue toned but IRL is sharp and clear black/grey and white.   I had forgotten how much I loved to sketch and its great to get a bit more practice.  

Hope you like my horse sketch, looks like a mare to me!  What do you think?  

So thrilled and delighted that this sketch was included in The Best of 2017 (Favorites) on Splitcoaststampers.  You can view this card on the Splicoaststampers 2017 favorites board here!   Many thanks to all of the ladies for their support throughout the year!
