My first pastel-unicorn is drawn on yellow-brownish paper, and I had to test the more greyish paper too. I think the grey paper is perfect for white horses (or unicorns)! I think it turned out nicely.

Hi!
I have to say this to you, because you réally have to keep up the wonderful work! You have an excellent, stunning and above all beautiful horse/uni-collection! Keep up! As a horse-lover I really enjoyed looking at your work; your anatomy is very good so the pictures are very lifelike! Amazing!

Best wishes & Compliments!!!
Sara
