About the Item
This striking artwork, titled "At Full Gallop," is a testament to James Gillick's profound admiration for horses and his extraordinary skill as an artist. Executed in sepia crayon on blue gessoed board, the piece captures the grace and dynamism of two galloping horses. The intricate detail of their forms, combined with the bold contrast of sepia tones against the blue background, brings a timeless quality to the composition. The work not only celebrates the beauty of equine movement but also reflects Gillick’s ability to evoke life and spirit through traditional techniques.
About the Artist:
James Gillick, born in Norfolk in 1972, is a contemporary artist celebrated for his devotion to the figurative tradition. Working from his studio in Louth, Lincolnshire, he employs classical techniques inspired by the Flemish, Dutch, and Spanish masters of the 17th century. Gillick handcrafts many of his materials, including paints, varnishes, and canvases, which contributes to the rich, timeless quality of his works. His limited palette and meticulous attention to detail allow him to create pieces with depth and resonance.
Horses are among the artist’s favorite subjects, and his connection to them is deeply personal. Gillick describes his joy in capturing their essence:
"I'm a joyful man, in fact. One of the reasons for that joy is that things do exist, that thousands of generations of people have been working on with an immense focus and singular care. Among the greatest of this type of thing is a living thing - Equus, the horse. And I mean thousands of years of people dreaming of an idea of perfection in an unbroken chain have given us the horse and horse breeds. In so many ways, the horse is born beautiful. It's beautiful in its bearing, beautiful in its proportions, beautiful in color, in coat. The names to describe it are beautiful. Coronet, Fetlock, Muzzle, Gaskin, Hock, Stifle, Withers, Cannon, Paston, and Pole. Their movement is hypnotizing because it is so beautiful. But most of all, their spirit is beautiful. Their lack of guile, their willingness, their courageousness at times. The aristocratic aloofness of the thoroughbred. The power of the polo pony. The sheer effervescence of the Arabian. The way in which a stallion directs his attention to his mare with such single-minded honesty and the way she receives his approach with such dignity is beautiful because they are faultlessly everything they were ever designed to be. They are amazing. And the people who create them are amazing. With my brushes, let me show you the horse, one of my great joys."
Gillick’s work is exhibited internationally and includes portraits, still lifes, and church commissions. His dedication to tradition, combined with his unique artistic voice, has made him a respected figure in the art world.
