28″ × 22″ Acrylic on canvas Painted at a time I was feeling constricted and weighed down by life’s “problems” Felt that Spirit Horse was telling me to throw off those constraints and kick up my heels in defiance.
This is my fav, love it Beth! Often we do some of our best paintings during difficult times:-)
Isn’t that the truth!! Thanks Louise! I get re-energized every time I look at this painting, he continues to remind me not to settle or let things get me down for too long!
I know how you feel, Beth. Horses have influenced me so much too throughout my life since I was little – my spirit – with their strength and freedom. When I’m down, I’ll often draw or paint them. This is magnificent. I must use these colours on their own some time – their glow is beautiful.
Thanks! The horse continues to remind me that there is strength and freedom always at hand whenever we have the courage to break out of the fences that surround us. You, my dear, are definately a kindred spirit! Have a great day!

Wow, she sure is a beauty Beth. The color is gorgeous too, I love that little touch of teal around her eyes and mouth against that sunny yellow.
Thanks! I felt lead to really break free, I guess that included my use of color too. :)
