SciFi and Fantasy Art: Hippocampus!

My baby.. because he's my first really complete work. Watercolors, markers, ink. Inspired by going to a lipizaner (Spl?) show.

SNAIL! Yay. I'm sorry, I'm on a hippocampus tour, but I love snails. I really like the background in the frame. Nice concept and rendering.

Gorgeous! Absolutly gorgeous! I think the horse's species is a Lipizzaner horse. I'm from Miami and I just saw the Lipizzander horse show where they do all tricks and the horses were just phenominal.
Your drawing is an outstanding use of ink and water colors. I love the sea slugs in the corner. Absolutly brilliant!

:-) Chelsea Schetzle replies: "Thanks for the comment hon. Did they happen to have an Arabian in the show you saw? I saw one where they taught an Arabian some of the same tricks. Gorgeous animals, no? I've gotten rusty, should draw some more horses. Thanks for the encouragement!"

Interesting that you imagine him with a horn. Great pic.

42 Chelsea Schetzle replies: "I like to have a -slightly- different slant on taditional mythological creatures. My mermaids usually aren't pretty for instance. 1 Thank you for the comment!"

I`m so jelus

42 Chelsea Schetzle replies: "Aw, don't be, they're an absolute menace to have around the house, always getting water everywhere!"

Beautiful! Wonderful design, great vivid colors, and nice little details...the snail is great, and the streamers of seaweed caught on the hippocampus are great...gives the impression that he (she?) is romping at full speed through the water. 1

42 Chelsea Schetzle replies: ""...romping at full speed through the water." That part made me giggle; yes I do imagine him being not just at home in the water but enjoying every moment of his existance!"

He looks like a leafy seadragon hippocampus 2. Beautiful, I really like this picture.

42 Chelsea Schetzle replies: "I've been doing mostly humans recently, I should get back to doing some seadragons and hippocampus/horses again. 2"
