Note: Forgot to say, but this guy is my character take on the fan background character "Van Horse". His painting was ruined by AppleBloom.

-Social Stuff-
Current Residence: Ponyville; used to live in Canterlot

Sibling(s): None
Other Family: Grandparents – Grandad Van Pastel and Grandma Orchid; his notable first cousin is Pokey Pierce
Closest Friends: Pokey Pierce
Courting/Courted By: None
Mate: None
Foal(s): None
-Personality Stuff-
Likes: Painting, illustration, late night walks, morning runs in the park, listening to the rain, hot chocolate
Dislikes: Being disturbed out of his art-funk, damage to his work, heights, foals in general, hot weather
Motivation: To create a piece of art that inspires and makes others happy
Strengths: Dedicated, helpful, good listener, compassionate, encouraging and modest
Weaknesses/Flaws: Brutally honest, blunt, procrastinates frequently, is often harsh on himself, envious and a perfectionist
Fears: Public humiliation, heights
Overall Persona: Lesley Van Twinkle, or simply Van, originates from a long family line of artists on his father’s side. As such, he inherited a joy, taste and talent in the fine arts, in particular painting and illustration, and this blossomed further when his father’s parents became his legal guardians at age 5 (his parents died). After his junior and senior school education, he won a scholarship to complete a degree on fine arts at the Canterlot University, and spent a few years completing his degree and Masters. He retained a job as a freelance artist and opened a few exhibitions with usual success. However, he has recently lost his motivation and has been unable to produce any new works. Hoping to again find his ‘funk’ he has moved to Ponyville and is eager for new experiences and inspirations to fuel his imagination.
Hope the overall persona thing is alright... I keep putting in some history out of habit (there usually is a history section in most of the character profiles I've done in the past)
