Tuesday: Why The Long, Deformed Face

I only had time to do one sketch, because I spent a long and stressful day at uni sorting out grades and student finance! When I first started this sketch I felt good about it. Using basic shapes to build the horse's head and then adding leaf shapes for the ears and nostrils, it was looking great. But then came the eyes. I think most my sketch is fine, it's just the eyes that make it look weird…

I think this is one of — if not the — worst sketches I've done. To me it looks like a cross between a mutated hamster and demon possessed horse. Hopefully the next animal I choose to  draw will be better... fingers crossed!
