Carousel Horse
$750
Gouache and Oil Paint
21 x 14 x 1 inches
While working as a face painter at the Woodland Park Zoo, I'd get to watch families joyfully experiencing that magical space. There was something about the warm lights, antiqued horses and the playful energy in the air whenever families "galloped" around the carousel. The feeling of nostalgia and simplicity stayed with me so much so that I was compelled to create a little magic of my own. This painting was created on a refurbished solid wood cabinet door that I sourced from The Seattle Recreative. I kept the original hardware so that the purchaser can have options on how they'd like to display this piece in their home.I hope that it brings as much joy to others as creating this piece gave to me.
