Horses: 0 |  Anyone want to draw/paint my paintless paint?
I would love to have any artwork of my "paintless" paint, Justin Time. We're going 9 years together and thought we should really celebrate! I've always wanted a painting but I'm a poor 21 yo trying to make it in the horse world.................. I keep getting screwed at every barn I work at (what gives??). Any ways, Justin has always remained my faithful best friend and has let me cry plenty of times without any snideness! :) We competed in hunter/jumpers for several years and the last two years, we've been eventing.... He's not the most athletic guy in the world, but he tries his big heart out and is very honest!!!! Last fall, we had an accident where I fractured my pelvis and broke a few of my vertebrae in my lower back.... and believe me, it didn't take us long to get back in the swing of things.... Our newest feat has been to tackle the water complex and he's the most amazing ditch horse! I would appreciate any drawings and may possibly be able to afford a painting?? But, reminder, I am the poorest person I know right now. I'm going to list plenty of pictures, and if I don't receive any, oh well - but trying to take a chance and maybe I'll get lucky. (And eventually, I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to purchase a painting or accept a drawing of my two rescued Border Collies, Shep & Adria!!!)
His lovely canter:
 
His gorgeous tail:
He really made me proud:
Justin loves being friends with everyone!:
When I lived in Missouri for a short while, Justin thought he was a wild stallion:

Okay, I think I'm done obsessing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Gorgeous photos!! I'm going to give it a shot--I can't make any promises, but I'll try! I only printed off four photos...that's kind of my limit...  | |

Okay, here's the scoop: would you like a single picture, or a collage? I can do either. Oh, another thing: is it all right if I do just regular pencil? I'm not too good with color and am terrified to touch paints.  | |

Sorry, I'm so dumb haha.
Do you want us to take one of those photo's and draw it?
Or, do you want us to try and draw your horse in a different pose? | |

I know this is off of the topic but I got intrigued when you said that you had an accident that resulted in a broken pelvis and some vertebrate.
Are you willing to share what happened? | |

It was just a freak accident, where my horse spooked at a competition during xc because of a loose horse.
We were in the middle of take off for a telephone pole oxer and a loose horse practically ran right up our hind end.... Caused for an ugly jump! :( Justin was okay, just really shook up.... I was the one who ended up being injured.
Didn't take me long to get back in the saddle though, because prior to our incident, Justin went beautifully xc!! Very honest (like always). And since, he has still gone beautifully xc.... Still gets a little worried, but I'm just there for him 2x more.... And any reassurance from me gives him the heart of a lion.... Not to toot our own horn, but we really do make a good pair!!!
I take it as a freak thing.....
BTW, the other rider was not hurt, she just got bucked off after a jump and the horse (being a hot eventer) took a tour of the course I guess. | |

Dang!! I hate that when a freak accident happens like that. I'm glad that you're doing well now! Woot! Thank you for sharing.
Back to the pictures... I have to say that Justin and the pig is my favorite one for some reason. | |
