Description

Birthday gift for my Mom.

I actually got it done on time! A day or two early, in fact. Whoo!

So...breaking away from the purple unicorn theme this time. I spent a while talking about things that my mother represents to me with Newshine and settled on this--gold and cream. Trust, love, friendship, all that good stuff rolled into a ball of THIS IS STUPIDLY HARD TO SHADE WHY.

Anyhoo, we both share a love for Christmas so...the image in my head was that the unicorn visits the North Pole and opens the gateway for Santa to come through and do all the gift-giving that he does.

Not really represented here but hey. The North Pole doesn't usually have a snowglobe on it but you know, I don't care. So there.

I've been working on this for a few weeks now so I hope it shows. Maybe. also that is snow. Not a big fluffy cloud. Although it wants to be. So. Yeah. Yay!

Merry Christmas, everyone.

Snow, winter, Christmas, horse and snowglobel?

Oh my, my, it seems like somebody just added all the
these elements into their picture and made one of the most AWESOME
and BEAUTIFUL pieces of art my eyes ever saw in their whole time

I don't believe thiiis

When I first saw it, I was just like "Whoah, I am sooo printing this out
for my wall in my room" because everyday when I wake up, I want to look at something really beautiful
which will make my day 100 times better just by looking at it

I mean, just looking at this pictures makes me soooo happy because I don't know, I guess I am
just a major fan of beautiful art and I love horses, they are my favourite animals and I love Christmas, as well

And this pictuere just combines everything I love so much in just one piece and it's like magic, when I take a look
at it, I instantly smile

I really, really, really, love all of your art but this one is really special to me because it's so beautiful
and you surely do have a talent when you were able to create something so simple but still so unique and full of happyness

I really do like this picture and I also admire you very much for your artist skills, I wish I could learn how to draw horses so perfectly

The anatomy is excellent and the coloring is simply flawless

I was really amazed when I saw this and I fell in love with this picture
the first second I saw it, it was really magical

I love so much

I just realized how lucky I am so come across such a beautiful piece
of art and such a talented artist, I really hope we can be friends
someday because I really love art, it's amazing

Keep it up like that, you're doing great

Have a great day!
