Huh
I feel like the guy from Always Sunny with the board

I have two late Septembers (bred), 2 mid October - different days (wild), mid November (wild)
all stating they are 11 years old with different birth years.

I have a handful of late October (bred) who state they are 10 with the birth year 183

...this is messing with my brain and spreadsheets

I'm very proud of all these so I don't understand what the problem is, which is why I need a second eye!

I want to start off by saying that these are very nice! The first thing I noticed was that there were no shadows. After closely inpecting them, the second piece is overall the best put together.
~
The first piece, the grounding needs a bit of work. Take a particle brush (or something similar) and make it so the horse's leg isn't straight; try making it look like it's hiding behind a hill of sand, which isn't straight.
~
Second piece, the only thing that is slightly bothersome is that the wreath doesn't have a shadow; that would really make the piece.
~
Third piece, I really like this one! The idea is great, the first thing that draws my eyes in a not-all-that-great-way is the fact that there are lines on the horse; horse's in real life don't have that; but if you like it, it makes it easy to figure out who the artist is (; Anyways, try slightly smuding it so there aren't lines but you still get the muscles? I don't really know how to explain what I mean 😅
~
Fourth piece, this one is byfar my favorite that you have done! The lighting needs a bit of work, but I love the overall piece. The only thing I have to 'complain' about is the lack of flyaway hairs.
~
If you want more advice feel free to PM me, I would love to help! Keep up the fantastic work; you got this <3

Agree with this. I'd also like to add that it would be nice to add some sand that looks like its being flung in the air by the horse when the hooves hit the ground to show that there is actually movement in the first piece, if you know what I mean, it's midnight right now and my brain is all jumbled, so I don't know how to explain it any better. 😂

That said, I think you have great potential if you keep practicing, I think these pieces are very nice! ❤️

This^^

BUT, I would say your art is beautiful, don't tear yourself up cause it isn't selling, I notice the whole art market has been somewhat slow, and as it gets closer to RO no one can afford to spend much

Everyone has already said what could use some improvement except for the hair. The hair on your pieces currently is very pixelated (low quality looking) and lacks the flowy feel towards the ends of it (especially due to the flyaways being straight). No hair tutorial and truly teach how to create hair flowing in the wind, so I recommend studying videos of horses in their different gaits to understand how the hair flows. Also, studying stock images may help. For the pixelation, smudging or blurring *very* slightly should help with the quality.
One last thing to address: The eyes. Eyes in pieces need to be clear, and draw the viewer in. What I would recommend is looking up horse eye tutorials on youtube, and make sure to look for a digital one.

I really do try on the hair and eyes. Granted, for most of these pieces, I didn't spend much time on the hair, but eyes I do think I've improved with-I've seen some tutorials, practiced, etc. My biggest problem with that I think is the size of the brushes I use-on my canvas size (1000x1500 starting), the smallest size of the brush that still gives a clear line is too big to use for hair, so I try to use brushes made specifically for hair but they take a very long time. So yes I do tend to struggle with the hair, when I apply a lot of time to it, like multiple hours, I can get it right but it's tricky.
Eyes are new to me too lol, so they are a struggle.
I can't afford a new program and also don't really have the patience to figure a new one out haha. Actually, if anyone has any tips for painting hair on Procreate that would be awesome!
Generally my problem is the sizing of the canvas, I do much better work with a bigger canvas but it's just impossible to resize

That hair looks much better! <3
i can see the detail and it looks amazingly realistic but in a artsy way! The occasional black strand looks beautiful and all the more realistic!

I do notice halfway through, a little above the eyes to the left, you can see where you started strands, try to make the strands follow through more or if you are trying for strands looking like they resurfaced, try to make it look more curved into the mane
