Elegant

A fresh interpretation of the formal Art Deco portrait, this painting pairs equestrian grace with the quiet glamour of a bygone era. A poised rider sits beside her richly colored horse, their silhouettes framed by sweeping branches and stylized leaves. Her tailored coat and tall boots echo the horse’s elegant carriage, creating a shared sense of confidence and composure.

Bold contours divide warm chestnut, amber, muted blue, and ivory into shapes reminiscent of stained glass. Flowing curves meet angular lines, giving the composition both structure and movement. The result is a portrait that feels timeless yet distinctly contemporary, celebrating the elegance of horse and rider through a new decorative lens.
