Year of the Horse, 2014

When Chinese New Year's comes around, I like to take a little bit of time and hand-craft a very special illustration to commemorate the occasion. As we all know, 2014 is the year of the horse. I imagine horses all over the world are celebrating intensely and causing all sorts of ruckus, and we should all celebrate with them.

You can check out last year's 'Year of the Snake' illustration here. I think it's actually better than this year's.

Chinese New Year, Year of the Horse 2014

Horsing Around

Sometimes you just need to ask yourself, 'if a real horse were hitting on a carousel horse in a bar, what would it say?'. I posed the question on the Land of Le Beef Facebook page; below are some of the responses I got.

The Italian Stallion in action...

"I've always had a thing for pole dancers. Can you do that thing where you do the splits and slide down?"

"Carousel horse, huh? Can I ride you for a quarter?"

"Hey babe, why the long face?"

"I'm looking for a 'stable' relationship."

"Some guys are into Durex, but I'm more of a Trojan horse."

"I'm hung like a you-know-what..."

"You've been spinning around my head all night."

"I'm feeling studly"

Well, that's it. Thanks to everyone who submitted. If you have any to add, please feel free to write them in the comments section.

I'd like to wish all the people out there a very happy 'year of the snake'. I can't say that snakes are my favourite animals, but as far as the chinese zodiac goes, they're definitely in my top twelve.

anyhoo,

Chuk nam sang wei.
