There was a speck on the drawing when I took the photos... oops. Y'all should ignore that
If you are not familiar with Classical Art, this is the Capitoline Horse. It is named for the museum in which it is housed. Little is known of the horse, except that it once held a rider. It is made of bronze.
The museum finished a huge restoration project on it in 2007, at which point it was uveiled.
At the bottom mine is a real horse. It fades onto the statue. I might title it "through the sculptor's eyes," or simply "the Capitoline Horse." Suggestions are welcome.

    That's really cool. I know how hard it is to draw horses, and you did that really well. It looks like a strong and determined animal. And I love the way you have it real for the bottom half. As for a title, well I'm not too good at that but I think that "the Capitoline Horse" fits.
