Abstract
'Bay' is a striking abstract painting that utilizes bold canvas strokes of acrylic paints. The artwork's color palette evokes the warm tones of a dun horse’s coat—ranging from sandy yellow to reddish brown—highlighting the natural beauty of primitive markings. The composition is dynamic, with layered textures suggesting movement and depth. Inspired by abstract expressionism, the piece captures the essence of wild equines, emphasizing the interplay of light and shadow akin to a canvas stretched with energetic brushstrokes.
