She doesn't look like a mottled mess anymore now that her pretty summer coat is covering my awful clipping job (it was my first time, it was awful), so I decided to show you my beloved Savannah while ya'll waited for more portraits.
Savannah standing in front of the stall she's never in. Clearly she is not the poster child for good conformation, she's downhill, I think her toes stick inward and I'm pretty sure her shoulder is slightly straight. She's a 24 year-old, 15.2hh Appendix Horse mare. She's an absolute doll as long as you aren't jumping her, putting any of your weight onto her shoulders/neck, or sitting on her back when the arena roof leaks and her butt gets dripped on.
It might be hard to see, but she has a chunk missing out of her right nostril (the one we can see the most) from an accident when she was a foal. She apparently got her nose stuck in a cracked bucket and it didn't end well. There is a chunk missing and scars from the stitches.
Below is a video of me free-longing her. This was a while ago when I was still learning so pardon the terrible longe skill on my part, I'm better now. Also, the video is really shaky because I had the long whip in one hand and my phone for videoing in the other. Naturally, I was focused more on her than seeing if the camera was straight.
Thanks for reading! Feel free to introduce your own horses in the comments, I'd be more than happy to see them
Hello, Fugly Bloggers, and anyone else who managed to wander here. Before I had to take a frustratingly long break from horse portraits due to my art teacher wanting me to do a larger piece of work that had a background and wasn't horse-related, my friends taking me to the beach for about a week and getting ready for and going through graduation, I got seven of the portraits done. You can see them below in this jumbled mess of horse portraits:
