The White Horse Portal is a large, shimmering red and green, summertime and white-horse-inspired landscape painting. It is a 36 x 36 x 1.5-inch oil on canvas. The style is semi-abstract and ethereal. The painting shows a white horse looking out over a hazy, abstracted landscape that hints of hills, trees, sea and summer trees. In the foreground are art-nouveau-style poppies contrasted against a curtain of green foliage. A portal shows the mare and the clearing she stands in. The painting was made by layering transparent paint so that the verticals of it seem to shimmer and shift around a little as you look at it. The inspiration was a recent walk along the cliffs and hills and woodland glades of Dorset, which are a little fairy-tale-like in places. I did not add a unicorn as that is going too far, but I think the white mare was the next best thing. Painted on deep-edge canvas, white edges, no frame needed, and ready to hang. Comes with a certificate of authenticity.
