: Bri,

: I envy your job drawing internal horse muscles (but, then again, I frequently envy people who clean stables).
: I seem to recall that some of the earliest attempts at cinematography consisted of a string of snapshots of galloping horses. They must have been shot on some sort of treadmill. They are not extremely clear photographs but they do a good job of showing what the horse looks like at any given point in a galloping sequence. In fact, I believe this was the fist time that the gallop was understood (something about the position of the legs and being completely airborne at one stage of the sequence). You probably won't find a video unless you locate one of those things that flip through the photos as you crank a handle, but I'm sure you can find books that show the photo sequences. Happy trails.

Will,

If i don't ever draw another horse again in my life it'll be just fine! It's getting to me. It would have been nice if you lived nearby..i could have just handed this right over to you. Fortunately i'm also doing something i swore i'd never do......two portraits of little "ankle biter" dogs....the freedom of moving paint is de-stressing me.
I'm in one of my art-whore phases: anything for the right (or even slightly below the right) price.
