Made in Friesland

Friesland, Netherlands

Believe it or not, in Friesland you really do see Friesian horses, not to mention members of one of the world's rarest dog breeds.

I don't know much about equestrianism, but I can understand why Friesians are so coveted. They're beautiful.

Unfortunately my hopes of drawing this horse up close were thwarted when it noticed me from a long way off.
