It’s that time of year again: Equestria Daily’s Artist Training Grounds!
Today’s subject was ponies standing/chilling. So here’s the best pony of all, taking a much deserved apple break.
Last year was the first I’d ever heard of this event, and since I’d just started drawing horse a few months prior, I was nowhere NEAR confident enough to even think about participating. In hindsight, I almost wish I had, but fear and low self esteem are a helluva combination, especially when you see all the other amazing artwork that gets posted. I completely disregarded the fact that it was meant to be practice, that I’m simply one of thousands of artists out there striving to be better. I am by no means a professional artist, but I’d like to think I’ve reached a point where I can provide guidance to other aspiring talents (even if it’s just ponies). It’s the least I can do to repay the kindness and generosity of this awesome community.
Huh. I promise I’ll try not to be so wordy with these in the future. Onward!
