Galloping Horse Outline With Flowing Mane and Tail

A single horse is drawn in simple outline, caught mid-gallop and facing left. Its head is turned slightly down with small pointed ears, and a jagged, wind-blown mane runs along the neck. The tail sweeps out behind the body with rough, spiky edges that suggest fast movement. The legs are bent and spread apart, with a few of them drawn as open loops, which leaves plenty of blank space inside the body and legs. There is no background, no ground line and no saddle, so the horse stands alone on the white page. Since the shape is so open, kids can try a favorite coat color like chestnut, black, or gray, then use a darker crayon for the mane and tail. It also works well for talking about how horses move when they run, and which legs are lifted off the ground. This free printable suits a wide range of ages.
