Drawing a horse

A policeman and his horse on Garrett Mountain overlooking Paterson, NJ. I used to draw a lot of horses as a kid. I even painted a life sized one on the Nature Shack at Camp Nah-Jee-Wah where I was a camper and then a counselor…back in the day.

My husband continues his battle with Covid. We have oxygen in the house which helps. He has fallen a few times, badly. He’s on a blood thinner which makes things worse i.e. a huge hematoma on his left side and a swollen left hand from his fall on Friday. He still has a good attitude but it’s been a long haul. (The doctors don’t call it long haul Covid yet as it’s only been three months).

Have a good week!

    I loved horses as a child, no idea why, I didn’t know any. ! I’ve always liked seeing a horse and rider working together. I hope your husband will regain health and strength and I am thinking of both of you.

    a long haul indeed and keeping everything reined in just to be able to carry on (in this context the mounted police horse is so pertinent) – am genuinely sorry to read about the struggles you and your husband are having.

    Hi Nina, I am so sorry your husband is still struggling to recover from Covid. My whole family got it about three weeks ago and it hasn’t been a barrel of fun at all. I am still tiring during the day and coughing but nothing like your have described. Hugs.
