Racing

Racing is the prompt this week for Illustration Friday



"If you spend all of your time racing ahead to the future, you're liable
to discover you've left a great present behind." ~ Tom Wilson



I thought this horse would be a good example of 'racing' but then realised that the fish also portrayed that image. A two for one bargain!

Transportation

is the prompt this week with Illustration Friday

"Music is a means of rapid transportation" ~ John Cage


maybe I should be working on my photography skills as well - there's a bit of glare but you can get the basic idea. Loads of blue and loads of texture.



My favourite part is the Horses head, It's definitely not anatomically correct but I like the flowing lines and blue shadow play. For all his size and muscles, his eyes betray his gentle nature.
