Thoroughbred mare finished/New horse portrait started

The weather has been really weird - hail, rain, sunshine, thunderstorms...so I decided not to go anywhere today and have been working hard!
This is the final version of Simply Sharp's portrait - I think it turned out quite well. I haven't heard back from the client yet but as she has seen all the WIP scans, I am sure she'll be happy with it.

I have also done some more work on Picasso's portrait (I'll show you another scan tomorrow), plus I've started another horse portrait. It is of a grey Warmblood mare called 'Fame' and she will be drawn in charcoal. I have not drawn a grey horse in charcoal yet so can't wait to experiment! ;o)
