About the Item

Wild Beauty, Original Contemporary Farmhouse Equestrian Painting 24" x 18" x 0.75" (HxWxD) Acrylic on Canvas Hand-signed by the artist. A simple approach to an equestrian portrait, this gestural acrylic painting by artist April Moffatt puts the horse face to face with the viewer of the composition, engaging with a subtle eye contact to evoke a deeper emotional connection. The neutral color palette is reminiscent of a sepia toned photograph, which gives a sense of nostalgia and charm to the work. There is something calming about the painting, perhaps due to the therapeutic nature horses can have with humans. This work would be right at home on a barn ranch in Texas, but could also help bring the mid-western, country vibe to a more eclectic or transitional environment as well. Artist Commentary: Loose brushstrokes and expressive energy were used to convey the energy that resides just beneath a horses skin. The main colors that were used in acrylic painting are ocher, brown, blue, black. About the Artist: April is heavily influenced by the classical impressionists but strives to bring about elements of expressionism as well into her paintings. She uses color fearlessly and is always striving to "capture the light". April wants her paintings to invoke the feelings of her subjects and especially the wild feelings of being out of doors surrounded by the beauty of nature.
