I am fascinated by the form and musculature of polo ponies: the angles and bends of their legs, the negative spaces created by horses standing and at a full gallop, and hooves on the ground and in the air. In this body of work, I continue my exploration of the horse using silhouettes, muted background colors, and the play of light on the body. These all combine to create this new body of work, which has never been exhibited before. In fact, I am not sure that the paint is dry!

The exhibition by Elaine Kehew will run from June 6 through July 2, and will feature 10 paintings of horses and 13 woodcut prints.
The opening party will be on Thursday, June 6 (6 -9 pm) at Que Pasa Bar and Bistro in Karen.
