Ponies in NYC by @digitalduckie (Duckie Williams)

A large (30"x50") piece I did for Life Drawing I two years ago focusing on foreshortening. It's a self portrait of me playing with a couple of My Little Pony's and a little narrative about ponies and my trip to NYC in high school.

Did you know there were boy ponies? They're my favorites. I mean, only a handfull of boys existing in a matriarchy? That must suck for the boys. At least they look liked clysdales or shires. I always thought those were the prettiest ones. I actually didn't play with My Little Pony much as a little girl. In fact I was going to sell mine on Ebay a few years ago. But I saw how many there are and my love and obsession grew. I have hundreds now. It's easy to get so many now. They sell new ones in the store for about $5. I buy them often. I even bought one from the Toys 'R' Us in NYC's Times Square. NYC was awesome. But you couldn't get any Dr. Pepper anywhere and at Serendipity, one slice of cheesecake cost $17! However, the subways were fun. People cussed at each other and the schools we visited had loft studios for students. SCAD is better though. NYC is too big for me. I come from Houston even. Oh well, I guess it doesn't matter. I'm still miles frome home and broke. At least I have my ponies. ( " )>
