Winner of Drawing Prize at Society of Equestrian Artists exhibition



"Tang Horse"  Diana Hand  charcoal on paper 2014

Big thrill when the Secretary of the Society of Equestrian Artists e mailed me to say I had won the drawing prize at the Horse in Art exhibition in the Mall Gallery earlier this month.  I am especially pleased because I like this drawing.  The idea came from a ceramic horse (Tang era -  618-907 AD) I saw in a museum in Xian, China a year ago.  I really like the  power and vitality of the horse,  and its informality, with the rug slung casually over the saddle.

AND SOMEONE BOUGHT THE DRAWING, WHICH WAS VERY PLEASING
