Drawings by Neil

Generally, my family is very supportive of my madness hobby. Then again, they’ve always been supportive of everything I’ve gotten myself into.

When it comes to hobbies, model horses aren’t very well-known. It’s a bit of a small hobby isn’t it? And probably kind of weird, depending on how you look at it. So, having people in my life who support it is encouraging.

My youngest brother, Neil, is fascinated with the things I make for my horses. He was really interested in the barn I was building a couple years back, and was always coming up with ideas for things to add to it. He’s also suggested names for my horses and asks if I’ve gotten a new one whenever there’s an empty box in my room. (Caught! Dang!) He ended up drawing me a few pictures of horses too:

My favorites are these two, which I found hidden with a bunch of papers recently:

That’s why you feed horses with a flat hand, Mr. Rancher Dude. (or Amish dude… he looks Amish, doesn’t he? Ha!)
