Best way to learn the ins and outs of drawing a horse is to volunteer to
groom a dozen or so. That's how Mr. B knows! and that's why although I don't draw at all I can still sketch a recognizable horsie - after cleaning every inch of a long succession of muddy hairy equines for 40 plus years!
I don't think you need to go as far as Mr. Stubbs the English horse painter did and start visiting slaughterhouses to sketch the musculature . . . that's carrying devotion a bit far it seems to me.

Not to worry - I won't be visiting any slaughter houses. :) Prefer the live ones, andI actually enjoy brushing a horse - have trimmed a few whiskers and ears, too. :)
