Ethereal Equines

Acrlic on canvas, D.P Todd Senior Secondary

I was inspired to do this work through seeing companies use this beautifal animal in their commercials. The commerciallized scene of the unicorns and flying Pegasus in lands of clouds made me want to create a painting where the horses fly and look free and wild. This work of art has personal meaning for me since I was a child although very few people know of it. I tried to use the horses to represent freedom of will and escape from the stressful formal and structured reality of everyday life.
