Fresian

Medium: pencil
All of my life I have wanted a Fresian….they would have to be the most magnificent of all the breeds. When crossed with warmbloods, they make excellent dressage horses!

Fresian belongs to the following groups:

Ebony and Ivory, Equine Art and Photography, Pencil Drawing and Rural NSW

    I’d love to one day be good enough to ride on a Fresian Horse (properly) ... Long way to go…
    Fresians must be one of the most gorgeous races out there! Yes, I agree with you… most magnificent… And you show that in your drawing, too! You’re just amazing!

    Wow! Thankyou so much Zeanana! If only I could afford to buy one…I would be the happiest girl on the planet!

    Awesome Pen…..............you have captured the breed perfectly, his nobility shines threw, there is no doubt he is from nobility…....................much better than those old pussies ;-)

  • PennyEdwardes

    PennyEdwardes, 6 months ago

    Seeing a few examples of your artwork was one of the things that made me decide to join Redbubble … and I haven’t regretted it. This is so realistic that I can almost feel his warm breath. He should be called Black Beauty.

  • PennyEdwardes

    PennyEdwardes, 6 months ago

    Wow! Thankyou so much for such a wonderful comment Dave!

  • Barssel

    Barssel, 6 months ago

    Only a cross breed Pen, never a pure breed Fresian…..........competed against a few and they are always a pleasure to watch…........

  • PennyEdwardes

    PennyEdwardes, 6 months ago

    They are! Although the feathery feet don’t look so elegant with warmup bandages on! lol!

  • Barssel

    Barssel, 6 months ago

    Agreed but the mane plaited down the shoulder is amazing….....................especially the stallions with their enormous crests…...............real war horses!!!

  • PennyEdwardes

    PennyEdwardes, 6 months ago

    I know! I saw my first fresian when I saw the movie “Ladyhawk”....god! That was YEARS ago! lol!

  • Barssel

    Barssel, 6 months ago

    Well there is one who competes regularly at the Werribee…......very successfully too, so if you want to see one up close thats the place to be in the new year.

  • PennyEdwardes

    PennyEdwardes, 6 months ago

    Sounds like a game plan to me! The poor owner won’t be able to get rid of me!

  • Barssel

    Barssel, 6 months ago

    lolololol…..........she won’t mind, actually she loves the attention the horse recieves everywhere he goes…...................I have some lovely photos of him somewhere.
