Hey! Here you are!
So you want to draw ponies? Maybe even be an equestrian artist? For a start you’ve got my book, the best book ever!!! and read it from cover to cover (anybody learnt it by heart??? Ha ha!!)...THIS is the book...
And THIS is what they’re saying about it...
"Fab book - I've already tried some new ideas..."
Abigail (8)
"I've never been able to draw ponies so I'm looking forward to working through this and having FUN!"
Rachael (25)
"Love the easy way it is laid out, makes me feel I CAN improve my skills, the language is relaxed and friendly...."
Jon (19)
This is the Drawing Ponies website that gives you more about Smoky Joe and friends, more artists’ info and top tips, more encouragement to keep drawing - and get better and better at it!
So listen up to the smartest, cutest, most loveable pony you’re ever likely to have the pleasure of meeting! Yes! Me!...as if there was any competition!
I’ve gone round my pals in the art world and picked out some who wouldn’t mind being interviewed by a pony....actually I didn’t tell them till I arrived on their doorstep, and you should have seen their faces!
Result!!
Read up in the section the nuggets of wisdom that dropped from their lips, (yes, we cleared up afterwards...) their top tips and how they got started. And yes, they were young once and reading ‘How to draw’ books too!!!
That was a long time ago in some cases....but it takes time to get really famous.
Unless you’re a special sort of pony that is. Stardom was inevitable I always thought...and hey! I was right as usual!
In you can check out the fantastic pics of me - and friends and family - we’ve been out and about and having fun!
The pages are there for you to upload your best pictures; it’s like having your own art exhibition! Upload to the main site or to your regional area (or start your own club page with friends) and see what other people are doing!
Just make sure your image files are suitable...read the small print carefully!
If you want to see some of the best horse art around today (and lots of it!!) look on the page for the Society of Equestrian Artists.
