Trojan Horse

This piece is titled “Trojan Horse” it was creating in acrylic on a 30” x 40” convex canvas.
The reason I created this piece is I have always loved the idea of roman times. I wanted to try my hand at painting something that captures this time period from horse’s perception. The horse is displays proudly to represent how they carried their owner into battle. But the eyes are shrouded in darkness to represent the unforeseen future of the battle to come.
