Origami Horse

Size: 4' (cm) x 5' (cm)

Medium: Oil and acrylic

Support: Canvas

After some years of living in Alberta, and finding that my art doesn't have a large audience there, I began pondering how i could make my art more accessible to a prairie based viewer. Having already competed three pieces for my origami series i thought of this as an opportunity to bring a sense of action to these works. 

Wild horses are a symbol of the west that is slowly being replaced by dreams of loud engines, and absurdly lifted trucks. In a world where their necessary habitat is being destroyed they could one day be a forgotten feature of the foothills.

Random drawing I made of my OC Aetheris kind of based off how gender dysphoria feels. I‘m not sure if I flaired this correctly but I figured I should maybe put content warning since it’s about gender dysphoria? Idk, sorry if I did that wrong. Also the speedpaint is available here if anyone wants to watch it.
