Horses, riders, carts and donkeys (A tribute)

Hi folks!  These two animals, one very strong, timid and delicate at the same time, as is the Horse, and another enormously resistant and sacrificed, as is the Donkey, have been the ones that have most delivered and served humanity with their work.

However, over the centuries, we have mistreated them with our constant wars. The artists of this post have made a small tribute to them. Thanks so much for your loyalty to this blog!

WARNING! Special Events in U.S.A. (January, 20th 21th. 2017)

The provocative President’s last words about journalists were:

‘They are among the most dishonest human beings on earth”

The power on his hands is a real danger to the whole world.

PLEASE MR. TRUMP: DON’T REPEAT OLD HUMAN DISASTERS  !!!

Awww friend! I’m sorry for my mistakes, it’s the first time that this blog, reblogged from another site.
I have chosen only some pictures, because I thought that putting them all was too much.

But as you can see, the text of your post, remains literally.
Thanks a lot !!!

Saints’ day. Sebastian (still with the first arrow)

Hi Folks!

It doesn’t matter that the topic about Saint Sebastian images has become a patron and icon for Queer people.

I think beauty should not have any kind of borders. That’s why today it’s here.

Thanks once more for your visits. Have a nice day or night!

Male nudes (my apologies to the historical masters)

Hi folks! I’m not confused, nor  I gone mad. For the first time I have made my contribution in  the first place for the theme of a post, because in one of the old scrolls of drawings I kept, I found some sketches that at least for its large dimensions have amazed me.
For example this drawing is on scale approx 3/4. I spent many years drawing nude from natural and today I want to have a memory of that time. As always thanks for your visits and your support for this blog.
