The White Horse Portal
About the work
The White Horse Portal is a large shimmering red and green, summertime and white horse inspired landscape painting. It is a 36x36x1.5 inches oil on canvas. The style is semi-abstract and ethereal. The painting shows a white horse looking out over a hazy abstracted landscape that hints of hills, trees, sea and summer trees. In the foreground are art-nouveau style poppies contrasted against a curtain of green foliage. A portal shows the mare and the clearing she stands in. The painting was made by layering transparent paint so that the verticals of it seem to shimmer and shift around a little as you look at it. The inspiration was a recent walk along the cliffs and hills and woodland glades of Dorset which are a little fairy tale-like in places. I did not add a unicorn as that is going too far but I think the white mare was the next best thing. Painted on deep edge canvas, white edges, no frame needed and ready to hang. Comes with certificate of authenticity. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-AfLZUT9i4
