Artist Comments:
This painting was inspired by my daughter who is a “Metal Horse” in Chinese Astrology.
The Horse is the standard for grace, strength, rhythm and nobility. They have an amazing capacity for hard work and go wherever adventure beckons.
The Metal Horse is the epitome of a chameleon, with many contradictions in character. They are proud yet sweet-natured, arrogant yet oddly modest in their approach to love, envious but tolerant, conceited yet humble. They want to belong, yet they are burdened by their need for independence. They need love and crave intimacy yet often feel cornered, pressured. They are free-spirited in every sense
