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!
nice horse, Nina – sorry to hear of your husband’s continued travails…

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.

I guess all girls like horses; I did despite not being a rider.
Thanks for keeping us in your thoughts. N.

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.

He is older and his immune system is compromised. We are considering a second booster. Thanks! N.
