The internet is full of pictures of pretty girls combing and brushing their hair, but what about a comely centaur girl brushing her beautiful blonde... tail? =P (Razz)

Yay! This year I made it in time for the annual Draw a Centaur Day on April 16th. :-)

As you may have already noticed if you read my comments to my earlier centaur drawings, I like it when centaurs look as natural beings and not just two dissimilar parts stuck together. This I find more important than maintaining 100% correct horse anatomy. (After all, centaurs are not horses, though certainly their attractiveness in great part stems from horse-like elegance). Not that I am particularly good at it but I strive to manage it and I admire artists who did it successfully (you may check my collection for some great examples). I perceive that one good means to make the centaurs' body look natural is the appearance of hair and tail. That's why I prefer centaurs' tails to resemble human hair rather than horse hair. And other great thing can be the pose. I love pictures of centaurs where their pose make sense and clearly tells that they are one being; one body under the command of one mind. In this picture I tried to depict direct interaction of upper and lower body in a natural way.

I''ll really appreciate your comments and critique, so don't hesitate to write! :-)

I should be drawing several other pictures, but for this one I had a clear inspiration a few days ago and because today is the Draw a Centaur Day 2013, I think it was good to use the opportunity. Also, it helped me to come to appropriate drawing mood, so now I think I'll easily continue to draw other pictures. ;-)

I rarely see a picture of a centauress with the proportions and enough flexibility to touch their whole tail; If centaurs ever become real life, I'm sure most people would want these proportions to they can completely feel and take care of themselves.
