Arwen, holding Frodo, rides Asfaloth towards the Ford of Bruinen "Noro lim, noro lim, Asfaloth!" ("run faster, run faster, Asfaloth" in Sindarin) while chased by the deadly Ringwraiths.

~Asfaloth was a beautiful Andalusian stallion from the film Fellowship of the Ring

I had the desire to draw some horses. Hope you like it!

Does the walker choose the path, or the path choose the walker?

is there anything you can't do?!! :D I've never drawn a horse properly... I don't think I'll bother now, since you have the market cornered! ;)

Man’s evolution consists in the process of changing to forms that are not of this world. Grows he in time to the formless — to live on a higher plane. Know that you must become formless before you can be one with the Light.

Thank you! Yes, it was a bit hard because of so much movement in the screen cap I worked from! It was a great scene in the film. :)

actually, there's alot I have trouble drawing! Landscapes, for one! (yeah, go and laugh!) Can't draw trees. Horses were the very first animals I learned to draw as a kid :D I always loved horses, still do. Thought it would be a change of pace.

But don't let me stop you :lol: horses are easier than people to draw !!!
