The Art of Carol Santora


Acrylic Paintings Inspired by the Horse
Original acrylic horse paintings ~ Intuitive - Spontaneous - Powerful

Inspired by wild mustangs, this new series of acrylic paintings are on gallery wrap canvas or cradled board, using a limited palette of colors and working more intuitively and spontaneously - from the heart. The paintings are about equine emotions and attributes; a message - something they can teach us. They may portray the myths and fables surrounding the horse, Native American folklore, symbology found in petroglyphs and prehistoric cave art.
