Personality

Some people call her naughty, but the word for her is smart.
She knows exactly what is going on, and exactly how to
outsmart almost any human.
Because of this, only experienced people can handle her.
She is not dangerouse, but has a knack for trying to snach
grass when you are not looking. She is a little TOO good at it!
She is a perfect riding horse though! When lead especially with
a child on her back every step she takes cautiously!
She is often brought to pony rides, and the kids
giggle at her extreme fluffy mane!
She is a total sweet tooth nerd, and is always sticking
her huge muzzle down your pocket to see if you are keeping
a precious carrot from her.
If you take your fingers and tickle right behind her lip,
she will life up her head, scrunch up her nose, and
'smile'. Not many horses can do that on command I
can guarantee! She has to go in a special paddock
with a horse proof lock, as she has broken out of other
ones over 3 times! Her stall also has a special extra lock
on it!
Oh, and one more thing. She is known for somehow ruining
whatever blanket she is wearing. It stopped last year when
we finally got a super expensive rip proof blanket, but my
goodness, we can't even count how many she ruined in her
younger years!

just wanted to show you this horse that looked like her here

History:
She was born here in the USA, but bother her
parents where imported from France. As a foal
she was hard to handle and train. She also had
a very hard time being weaned. In the process,
she managed to get herself stuck half under the
fence of the paddock she was in. Her front legs
where tangled up and her head was stuck in
the fence, people where afraid
that she would not make it as she struggled trying
to get out. When she was two years old the owners
started bringing her to shows competing against
other mulassiers. She won competition after
competition, and became worth lots of money.
People offered to buy her, but the owners refused.
She continued showing till she was 5. By this time,
younger horses started winning. Having better
success with her younger half and full brothers and
sisters, they decided to open her up to anyone who
would offer to guy her with a good price! A young
woman came is one day looking for a sweet and
pretty horse to buy and bring back to a place called
Cottonwood Ranch to gift to an amazing friend.
After a long pause of thought, the owners lead her
over to Zimba. "She is perfect!"
explained to the owners. The nodded at eachother
and shook her hand. It was a deal.I think you know
how the story goes from here on!
And Zimba lived happily ever after...

About The Art:
piece no.1
Ok, long story on this one. This piece of art took about an hour and ten minutes. It was done 1/3 with a tablet and pen, and 2/3 with a mouse. You can read about this below, but my tablet suddenly stopped working. I had already done the lines, but I had to do the mane, the coloring in layers, and the coloring with the mouse. When you have not used a mouse in a year, its harder than anyone would think!! I will make a version of this piece of art with shading when I have the time if I win! *crosses fingers*
I decided also to give him blue eyes. He has sabino in his genes, and his eyes are covered with his mane in the original pic, so I just couldn't resist!!
piece no.2
This art piece is by Nancy, done with mouse, using Windows paint for lines and GIMP for coloring. It took her about 45 minutes. Wow! By the time Nancy is my age she will be better than me!
piece no.3
A special thanks to Nancy! I went up to my bedroom to watch youtube for an hour on my tablet, and she comes knocking on my door saying she has made more art! Done with the mouse, lines or Windows Paint, color on Gimp, time about 20 minutes. So cute!!
Another two pieces of full body art are coming for this gal. I have the lines done but need to add the coloring layer and coloring for one of them, and the other I still have to add the mane and feathering before the rest. I truly don't know if I will get them done in time unless Seren judges really late. I will be mostly working on writing when I get the chance.

Why Do I Want Her?
Owning this gal would be just so much fun! I absolutely freaked when dark pmed me about the horses she was going to readopt, and have been waiting for this girl to come up for readoption since the front of the readopting event! She is like taylor swift, flawless in every way. I can guarantee you will be seeing some more art of this girl in the future, as her extreme puffy mane is SO fun to draw! If only we could make pen's fluffy manes, like official manes for CWHR? They are so cute!! Wait... she is a dun? I love duns so much! She's Sabino? MY WEAKNESS! Not only am I so exited about getting the chance to win her, but Nancy is helping me win her too! She loves her fluffles mane and is wishing me the best of luck!
