Maybe sharpen the eye a bit... to make it really pop and draw attention?
Congrats on the ribbon- Was I wrong- where is the focus on this one? on the chin/forehead/fence depth? certainly not on the snout or eye. I really like the second horse as well- a bit more serious looking...
Oh yes, talk to me. My favorite so far. Composition is good and the color is good. I wish you had been standing just a little further back, same angle and everything, just a little more of the sweetie in front. 10
