Horse Series 156

A powerful horse surges across the surface with a sculptural musculature, its forward thrust interrupted by veils of dripping paint that read like rain, time, or memory falling between viewer and subject. Warm umbers and burnt oranges ignite the body with primal heat, while cool violets and ashy greys fracture the ground into unstable terrain, turning motion into a psychological passage rather than a simple gallop. The composition holds a tension between control and release—an emblem of vitality pressing through abrasion—suggesting resilience that persists even as the image is partially washed, weathered, and rewritten.
