This pastel painting captures the quiet elegance of two dapple‑gray horses standing in close companionship. Their braided manes, accented with soft red ties, add a touch of ceremony to their otherwise natural, grounded presence.

""I strive for a level of realism in the horse that moves beyond mere depiction. The direct application of pure pigment allows me to work spontaneously, creating a sense of gestural emotion and vibrant light. I challenge myself to create a realistic piece that “comes to life” on the canvas."
