Happy Halloween 2015

I done this piece for two reasons. 1. This is my first entry for my Halloween Art Challenge, but if I do something better later I might replace it.  2. this is the design for my Halloween 2015 bookmark.  For the first time a scan actually turned out better than a photo.  I will not be doing DeviantART prints of this at this time due to that reason.

Alternate:  

I created this on black drawing paper with Prismacolor colored pencils, and Koh-I-Noor Polycolor colored pencils. A friend sent me a picture of her horse rearing up for the pose, but that was the only reference I used.
