Description

This unique "ethereal" artwork was inspired by a title of a show called "For the Love of Horses"... (which was a benefit to help raise funds for scholarships that sponsored disabled children to receive therapy while on a horse called "Hippotherapy"). I wanted to create a classic black & white piece with an "equine theme" which helped to convey the "fun, free spirit" of the horse. The horses have a "happy-go-lucky" attitude in this piece which correlates to the relaxing time of fall . . . when the air is cool and time slows down enough for you to play in the early snow falls. This artwork contains photos I took of some of the horses that assist in a "hippotherapy program". It also shows an interesting "ghost like" figure of a horse in the clouds depicting that "the sky's the limit" when it comes to awesome ways in which the horse has helped & continues to help mankind. The end result of this piece . . . is a "beautiful" Photographic Fine Art Collage.
