My goal with jumping is just to stay alive. Last thing I need is someone timing me and judging my form. XD

Nah it's okay I used to be a hater too. But I've done a few clinics with judges and knowing what they look for and really understanding how much of an art it can be is really cool

I've never really done the hunters before and Evie's doing so well in the jumpers, finally moving up to the .90s, I don't want to take her focus off that, so I'm having a lot of fun just playing around with the idea of it on Cliff. Though it's gonna take a lot of work to really get him hunter ready. And maybe a pelham

For real I would be too. I completely understand your situation, stuff like this has happened to me a few times too.
Savannah Stables
09:35:03 Dusty
Im sure if you cry hard enough they'll let yall in the lead line class?
I do think cliff would do great with an ammy in the 2' though, theres some tough ones out there!
I somehow do at least half of my warmup courses backwards but ive never gone off of the actual course...
Im also like kind of tired of hunters though i dont think i want to do more of that lol

Yeah it seem like you know your nephew well enough to be able to joke about that and yeah if he's is starting school he will be no help at all

I think the jumpers I could do lower, and there's a few open flat classes that I'm hoping to do Lux in next year, but nothing really in the hunters unless I exclusively did warmup classes and didn't actually compete. Which. Meh. 😂

That's still pretty damn cool!

I understand that my sister wants our brother over at her place, considering he starts school in August, but that kid ain't gonna help her with the damn baby. I help her with everything, literally. He always used to get to go out, I rarely get to go out as it is.

Looking for critique on this art piece:

** I know the front legs look crossed! If the hooves were showing I don't think it would be that way! **

Also looking for advice on tips and tricks!

I'm no art expert but, the tail looks flat, there is no difference in color it is all the same color. Personally I would also like it longer. I would put a reflection in the water too, I know there are Lilly pads but there are still some areas where a reflection is needed. Lastly, the horse should also be a little smaller because the nose shouldn't be almost chopped off. Hope this helps :)

Im like the queen of critiques today hehe

Background
- I would select most of the background (from around the end of the horses tail and up) and blur it out a bit. It will draw more focus to the horse.
- It seems as though you just took the bg without editing it at all, which is fine, but I personally would have tainted it more of a blue-hue or something of the sorts. Remeber to experiment instead of just going right to the original BG!
- I would add a darkened, precise reflection to the water here. Duplicate the horse layer, position it behind the horse, and laying on the water, and then darken it, and lower the opacity. Then, erase all of the spots where the lilly pads are, and replace that with a very light shadow, so that there is a reflection on the visible water, and a light shadow on the lilly pads. :)

Horse
Lighting
The lighting in this photo is quite nice. Its not a super difficult bg to work with, and you definatley chose a great stock image to pair it with. Well done!

Horse Body
- Great job with the majority of the body, I really like the way you prepped its coat! Just right on smudging and such.
- As for where his legs meet the water, I would reccomend a clean cut instead of a fade into the water. in real life, thats how it would really work. I would also add ripples in the water where the legs meet (you can find ones that are ready to go on DA) to add some detail.
- The eye needs some work. The horse in question has a small eye in this photo, so you need to be very precise. You definatley have the right idea here, but remember, practice makes perfect!

Mane and Tail
- Mane looks fine to me, it seems that in this image the mane was roached (shaved) so you didnt have to worry about that.
- Tail needs a bit more expression. Grab a 1px brush in 100% smudge mode and fan it out a bit. remember to use curved lines with movement!

Accessory
- I like your idea here, but the flower needs to be smaller. I would also put some shadows around it to make it fit in the image better.


I hope this helps!

Thank you! I'll experiment with reflections (Not very experienced with shadows and reflections) and I'll edit the tail a bit more. I'll go see what I can do with the background and I'll see what I can do with the flower.
