Art Nouveau Party Horse is a 30 x 40 x 1.5-inch oil painting on canvas of an Arab horse, painted in an Art Nouveau, rather playful style. This painting began life as a serious portrait of a beautiful bay stallion. However, it was boring, so I decided to see what would happen if I made it into a Gustav Klimt-style painting. I added lots of gold and some little patterns and marks that transformed it completely. I am very fond of paintings that show an interplay between traditional and abstract, so I am now very happy with this painting, as it looks like a conservative horse who has gone to a party and is letting his hair down (hence the name). The background and edges are gold, and it does need a frame. It is ready to hang.
