A Horse’s Bit(e)

Laura Bech

Through the use of Graphite and Ebony pencils, Bech creates a drawing based on a photo of a horse’s bit taken from a foreshortening angle. A bit is a part of a horse’s reins which is made of metal. Bech’s use of shading to represent the reflections of light makes the 2D metal piece seem almost lifelike.

Emeralds and Pearls
