Dog Days Are Over

Another Illustration for class in which we had to create a picture based off of a song. I chose the Dog Days Are Over by Florence and the Machine.  She often mentions the horses are coming and the song depicts sort of the end so I thought it would be fun to draw the four horsemen of the apocalypse.  It was quite an undertaking for a three day painting. I had a solid composition, color scheme and value study but when it came to depicting them I had to come up with their costuming last minute and didn't think of this sooner but totally should have been Clydesdale horses.  Otherwise it turned out to be a solid piece based on critique so can't complain but some things to keep in mind for future projects.
