Portrait of a Spirited Horse is original art work painted in acrylics on a 18 by 12 inch gallery wrapped canvas. The horse was posing in his trailer and it was a perfect composition to use as a reference for painting. I painted the portrait in a realistic mode and worked to capture the important features. The palette uses nearly all of the earth tones and some green to paint the rope. I used Payne's Gray enstead of black, and like the way it harmonized with the painting.
I will be offering this painting at my art shows, but should you have an interest in this horse portrait or commission work, contact me at Jimmie@jimmiesart.com. I plan to have limited edition prints available soon.
Many Thanks to my good friend Dianne for the use of her photo.
God Bless You,
