- Sterno hyoid
- Point of breast bone
- Pectoralis
- Triceps
- Latissimus dorsi
- External carpi radialis
Head Studies

(Notice the form of the muscles)
The legs show action. Note the muscle tension.
When drawing the horse, remember that the whole weight of the body is carried by the four hoofs. Therefore, when you do a study of a horse standing, draw the hoofs so that they appear solidly placed on the ground, and make them large enough.
Notice particularly how the fetlock narrows immediately above the hoof.

This term is used about that part of the drawing which recedes from the eye.
Part of the horse is foreshortened when it is facing you head-on. To help you draw this, use a block form first, making the parts which recede from the eye smaller in size.
Notice the change of balance as the horse moves its weight from one leg to another.
This is a slow, relaxed gait. The front legs leave the ground at the same time, and are slightly raised, while the rear legs are on the ground. When the front legs are on the ground, the rear legs are slightly raised.
