About this work

This painting shows a group of horses with big, rounded bodies and long legs. Their coats are mostly brown and rusty red, with some faded blue and white spots. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, making the shapes feel rough and textured. The horses seem to be moving in a loose, scattered formation, like they’re running or galloping. Their heads are turned in different directions, giving the whole scene a sense of energy. Look up impasto next to see how thick paint layers create this tactile effect.
