When drawing any animal it is detrimental to have at least a simple understanding of their bone structure.
In drawing a horse it helps to draw circles and shapes to guide. One for the head, neck, shoulder/chest, belly, hindquarters, knees, hocks, and pasterns. Remember where the bones are as you place the shapes.
Once you have drawn the circles you can start fleshing in. Again, keep in mind where the bones are.
Now that you have the lines down you can pick up a pen and draw in the ones you want to keep. After you draw all the lines you can erase the pencil.
You can start coloring now. Watercolor, marker, color pencils, whatever you want. Shade the darker areas. I did these drawings on the computer, on a program called Manga Studio Ex4.
