Firebrand, 2024. Acrylic and flashe on linen, 18” h x 24” w x 1” d. $2400
“Firebrand” captures the unity between horse and rider in medias res, with vibrant, energetic marks and a riot of color. A central thoroughbred horse, all taut muscles and flaring mane, gallops across the canvas, its movement echoed by radiating streaks of paint, applied in thick impasto with palette knife. Astride it sits a poised, confident female figure, with flowing dark hair. Layers of acrylic streaks on top of flashe vinyl adds to the color contrast and sense of depth, especially as one views the piece from different angles.
