Beautiful work! I think it's interesting that you were watching races in Billings; my girlfriend's from Montana, and her family lives in Billings.

Again, beautiful work. I love the colors and the shading. I'm guessing you used graphite for the outlining and colored pencil. Excellent job. I admire how lifelike this piece is.
