Running Free~ Original Oil and ACrylic Painting


Well, as I was saying before the blogger monster ate my last blog( I think it's being digested), I was inspired to create this painting from a Native American indian gourd.
The gourd had been a gift, but I always felt sad about the horses that were forever captured on the gourd, and I felt the need to set them freee.
One day I sat down with a new canvas, oils, and acrylics. I placed the gourd in front of me , and let the spirit of freedom guide me.
This is the finished painting. You may visit my http://mysticsilks.etsy.com
and view the painting, along with the gourd that acted as my inspiration.
Thank you,
Mystic Silks

It was worth the wait to see this piece!! I'm so glad your horses are free, Mystic. It does seem right for them.

I love it. It reminds me of a digital animation I made in college where I freed pegasus from off of a greek urn.
