Portal Horse – 40 × 30 cm

Portal Horse explores emergence, movement, and symbolic transformation through layered abstraction. A dark vortex-like form opens at the centre of the composition, holding a vivid blue eye, while a gold calligraphic horse appears to rise from its edge — as if crossing from one realm into another.

Built through intuitive mixed-media mark making, the work combines deep blacks, teal blues, smoky neutrals, and luminous aqua passages that create both tension and flow. The painting carries a sense of mystery and watchfulness, balancing stillness with motion.

This original artwork is framed and ready to hang, making it a striking statement piece for contemporary interiors.
