Artist Statement

My representation of horse racing captures the dynamic energy and excitement of the sport. Bold, vibrant colors and striking visual elements convey the intensity of the race, paintings depicting images of horses, I expressed my feelings and thoughts in each painting, and approached them visually and friendly through the essence. Especially for me, horses are familiar and relatable animals, and they make me draw horses at this intersection based on my emotional experience when we spend time together. The scene that I am interested in is the story of horses looking at our world experiencing the human emotional world directly or indirectly in the lives of people image of horses and expressed them in colors, lines, and faces on the canvas. I like to paint. Inspired by scenes I have been with horses for a long time, I have dynamic energy and my passion for intense colors.
