Abstract Cowboy on Horse Modernist Folk Art Canvas Wall Art

The Rider — Abstract Cowboy on Horse Modernist Canvas Wall Art

The horse is long the way horses are in dreams. The rider sits above with the ease of someone who stopped thinking about riding a long time ago — wide brim low, reins loose, going wherever the horse has decided. The background is warm cream and aged yellow, washes of deep teal and burnt red, worked until it held what it needed to hold. A painting about momentum. About a rider and a horse that have become one thing.
