Moira, a Kladruber Unicorn
5″ x 7″ Copic Markers
In today’s installment of the Season of the Horse (a new project to improve my horse drawing skills), we have a unicorn based on a very old Czech breed, the Kladruber, found on Pinterest! The convex facial profile (rounded out instead of sloping inward), is an identifying characteristic of this breed. Here is an insanely adorable foal.
Hoping to get back in the swing of Paint Party Friday! Meanwhile, I’m still in early-Halloween mode with witch ATCs. This is Marciana, captured with a crabby scowl because her prized Fancy Chiggerwort spoiled. Bummer.
Marciana, in progress
2.5″ x 3.5″ Copics, fine liners, white gel pen
Thanks for dropping in! Still super busy at my day job. And I have to decide very soon about September’s 30 Paintings in 30 Days! Are you going to do it?

Cindy you are amazing. I love everything you do!
Cindy, your art makes me happy! That unicorn! ♥♥♥
All with Coptic markers? Amazing!!
Thank you! Almost all Copics – the mane was a Prismacolor Pencil experiment. I should probably note that in the post. I forgot because I rarely use anything but fine liners and Copics! :)
You used colored pencils? I’m so excited! :D
The unicorn looks amazing – and it was very fun to see your reference with your drawing! (Also, FOAL!) Love the mirroring between your background and your foreground shading design! Super incredibly dimensional horn, too! <3
LOVE your unicorn, so other-worldly.
Your Unicorn is so breath taking ♥♥♥♥ You have managed to catch both it’s beauty and it’s spirit . Well Done!!!
Amazing work! Valerie
He’s adorable Cindy! What a majestic face!
I love the witch too. Yay Halloween!

Sorry for the trouble! Thank you for visiting and I do see you on the subscriber list. (Maybe check your spam, just in case!) :)
oooh your horse is magnificent, and the witch ATC is fabulous!!
Oh wow, Marciana looks a bit pissed off …. Wouldn’t like to be near her when she’s in this mood ;-) Love that eye on your unicorn. Great work!
Moira has something to say…perhaps she is thinking about the 30 paintings challenge;)
Such impressive work…always the best unique characters!! You just rock!

Love your beautiful artwork. Happy PPF, Annette x
Fabulous…..love the colors…..soft blue and pinks are always soothing. The convex nose is quite amusing……if I hadn’t seem the photo would never thought a real horse had a funky muzzle like that!
Its really pronounced!
And I love the way the small horn was done……..it looks like old growth from many yrs ago…….
Ha! Your Unicorn looks old and wise, Cindy. The witch? Perfect pouty face. You are so good!
Ohhh I really like this unicorn. Your art is so whimsical and fun and brings joy.
So the unicorn is #1 of the 30 day group & the witch is she also one of the 30? Your fan mail is fun to read.
OX, Mom
Nice unicorn! I love seeing your work in progress.
Lovely ladies!
