In this piece, I focused on the detailed and photorealistic depiction of a Friesian horse, its gaze fixed directly upon the viewer. The meticulous application of the dry brush technique allows for the intricate rendering of the horse's features, from the flowing mane to the expressive eyes. The lifelike quality of the painting captures the grace and strength inherent in the Friesian breed. The close attention to detail and the play of light and shadow contribute to the realism, inviting viewers to appreciate the majestic beauty and noble spirit of this captivating equine subject.
