Jackson Square Horse Statute - Oil

Every now and then something different catches your attention. I personally love doing portrait work but this piece struck a cord in my creative little noggin.

We had gone to New Orleans a number of years ago and I had wanted to visit Jackson Square. It had featured prominently in a book series I had read so I went to see about art imitating life! Then I took it another step further! lol

I loved the photo so much I though it would make a striking painting so away I started. And then I stopped. Then a few years later started again and finally after 4 years of stopping and starting I finished it!

Hope you enjoy it!
