Poetry In Motion; A galloping herd of mustangs, USA, 2008

These incredible mares have won 2nd Place in Digital Media in the Ex Arte Equinus 5 Equine Art competition. They will be showcased in the next issue of Art Horse Magazine and on the Art Horse Magazine website in the New Year. The magazine and book should be printed and released for sale mid March.

“This is a piece that whispers, not shouts; but it’s message is engrossing.. There is balance, energy, and movement, but not chaos or turbulence. The scene lives in the moment; they have flickered into view only for a second, they they’ll be gone again. These fleet steeds might be many, or they could be the same horse in different phases of movement. Everything the artist has done here is on purpose, and is done with incredible ease–from the composition of the figures (weighted to one side of the image) to the bright, almost blinding negative space. This is a mirage, as if the viewer has inadvertently looked into the sun.” Lyne Raff  (Juror)

It feels good to be loved.
