Lisa Palombo, "More Than Just a Horse" Secretariat Equine Acrylic Painting

2022

About the Item

This equine impressionist painting, "More Than Just a Horse" by artist Lisa Palombo is a 18x24 acrylic painting on watercolor paper featuring a side view portrait of racing legend Secretariat, or Big Red, wearing his famous white and blue checkered blinkers. The bright vibrant colors of this copper-colored horse capture the movement and exciting energy of thoroughbred horse racing. This acrylic sketch is matted and framed under glass. Secretariat is widely considered to be the greatest racehorse of all time and the most recognizable name in thoroughbred racing. Big Red, as he is most often affectionately referred, became America’s Horse after his historic Triple Crown win in 1973, winning the Belmont Stakes by an unimaginable 31 lengths (in world record time) in what stands today as the single greatest horseracing performance ever. Lisa Palombo is a renowned Contemporary American Impressionist known for her expressive brushwork and fearless use of color. She produces magical florals, still lifes and landscapes in a unique style that is unmistakable and is considered a master of color and the natural form. About the artist: Lisa began her formal art education at the age of nine while spending summers at the acclaimed Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). She later graduated from RISD with honors and has been painting professionally for over 30 years. Her awe-inspiring artwork adorns the walls of private collectors and corporate collections worldwide. Lisa’s work has been featured on more than 40 book covers, including several New York Times bestsellers as well as showcased in House & Garden, Art & Antiques Magazine, Southern Living, The Artist’s Magazine, American Art Review and a Columbia Pictures movie, The Bounty Hunter.
