Pencil drawing of my favorite animal in the world... the Horse.
Hours of drawing time captured in a few minutes.
"Do you give the hose his might?
Do you clothe his neck with mane?
Do you make him leap like the locust?
His majestic snorting is terrifying.
He paws in the valley and exults in his strength;
he goes out to meet the weapons.
He laughs at fear and is not dismayed;
he does not turn back from the sword.
Upon him rattle the quiver,
the flashing spear, and the javelin.
with fierceness and rage he swallows the ground;
he cannot stand still at the sound of the trumpet.
When the trumpet sounds, he says 'Aha!'
He smells the battle from afar,
the thunder of the captains,
and the shouting." Job 39:19-25 (ESV)
