As the title suggests, I have redrawn my idea of winter personified as a horse. This time, Winter is a mare. This is part of a bigger project I've been working on, more of that on a later date. The picture doesn't do any justice to the beautiful creature, but here is a description of what she looks like:
"She seemed very imposing, standing there with the grass around her gradually freezing. She was heavily built, with massive feathered legs and thick grey mane reaching almost to her knees. Her coat seemed to change colour before my eyes, some of it being as pure white as fresh snow, while some had taken on the beautiful blue glow of a sunless winter day. My heart beat a little fast as I reached out to touch her and I was surprised to find her flank warm under my paw. She turned her head to look at me, and in her grey eyes I saw warmth and age old wisdom."

Thank you very much. This is all about the atmosphere, but I don't really know whether I was successful in conveying it the way I wanted.
I should hope the quote is not from "Age of Equus", otherwise I've done some accidental plagiarism. No, it's from a short story I've been working on the past month or so. But more on that next month.

Thanks very much. I'm not sure she particularly wants to live forever, but then again, she never got a choice. If you want to read more about her, her story is here? http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3248906
