The Spirit of the Horse, created with Japanese graphite on Strathmore 300 series acid free paper, captures a quiet moment with precise, economical lines and a softened palette, balancing realism and suggestion. Light washes define volume while leaving certain areas deliberately unfinished, inviting the viewer to complete the scene mentally. Careful contrasts between shadowed planes and illuminated highlights create depth without heavy detail, and the composition guides the eye along a subtle diagonal that lends gentle movement. The overall effect is contemplative and intimate: an observation rendered with restraint that emphasizes mood and form over literal completeness.
