Polo Pony & Player

Polo is a fast-paced sport that requires speed and agility in both horse and rider. The horse’s flaring nostrils show the energy the horse expends, and the dramatic angles of the rider’s body illustrate the player’s range of motion. It’s important to capture the action of both the horse and rider before going on to shade the drawing.
