study of the horse Untitled

One image in a series I am experimenting with, "A study of the

Horse." Comments and ratings of all sorts are deeply appreciated.

Enjoy! ~Mary~

This is such a good idea for a series and all of them so far, are very compositionally strong images. The curves and textures here compliment each other well. The blackness of the tail butting up to the right side of the frame is particularly effective. The soft curve of the bent leg and the OOF space between the two legs all create unique shapes. I know what I'm looking at but at the same time this is a dynamic abstract. It has been awhile since I dropped by, glad to see you still working away at these:) All the best Gord.

I was curious about reactions to this one and didn't get any feedback. So I am happy to hear your critique. I greatly respect your eye, and you often see things I miss. This one really appealed to me, though I didn't really know why? I also worry that my strong connection with the subject creates a bias eye. I am glad you like it and appreciate the specifics as to why. I printed the one other in this series (Far Go's mane) in 16x20, and it hangs in my office. I have really enjoyed it. A lot of the reason this series was started was in response to the feedback I received from you here. With deep respect and appreciation... ~Mare~
