About this work

This sketch shows a horse with a human face. The horse’s mane is drawn as feathers, and its head has a crescent moon for an eye. The lines are simple but bold, and the whole thing looks like it was made by hand. The artist added real feathers to the drawing, which makes the mane stand out. This isn’t a painting—it’s a woodcut with extra details glued on. Check out woodcut to see how this printmaking technique works.
