Summary: My very own Art! Mountains and horses! I took the photos that I referenced for the assorted buildings in the background. Inspired by Bavaria.

Breath-taking. Very beautiful. The only criticism I have- and do forgive me for voicing it if it's not welcome- is the left hand horse's legs. It seems to be walking almost like one might have a Tennessee Walker or a stepping horse of some type. But other than that one small detail (and it's still totally beautiful with it, mind), every thing is grand. You have great skill :) thank you for sharing.

Thank you for your comments. I don't mind critical comments. Since I don't use photo references for the horses, who knows what they are? :D I did have a friend who raised and showed Tennessee Walkers, so maybe I was influenced by the showy look of them. I tend to dodge historical accuracy in favour of whatever amuses me. Someday I should do with horses what I'm now doing with people--spend a few months concentrating on portraiture. I appreciate the feedback and I'm glad you liked this.
