The last collection in my horse art by color series is the bay animals, last but certainly not least. This is perhaps the most common and widely recognized horse colors on the planet & comes in a wide variety of stunning shades.

Horses in the Bushes – Topiary Horses

Finding horses in strange situations is something I enjoy, from snow to sand to clouds I look for them everywhere I go. Luckily there are plenty of photographers who seem to feel the same way that share their visions with the rest of us.

A One Horse Open Sleigh
Regardless of what your faith or what holidays you celebrate it’s hard not to enjoy horse art. So my gift to everyone today is a fun collection of horses with sleighs in art.
Happy Holidays
As this year draws to a close and the holiday madness begins to slow it’s a great time to appreciate a little artwork. Interestingly enough, many of these come from Russia & many of them picture famous Orlov Trotter animals pulling racing sleighs.

Horses in The Ice

Who doesn’t love a good horse ice sculpture? They are cold, drippy and carved into your favorite animal – they are temporary art that only lasts for so long. In fact, the photographs are all that remains of these particular ice sculptures.

Palomino Horse Art
Over the past few weeks I’ve featured some colorful horse art collections and this week is no exception. Today it’s all about the blondes, those handsome and fair animals we call palominos.
Colorful Genetics
This color comes from a chestnut horse that is affected by a creme dilution gene (sound confusing?). Equine genetics is incredibly involved, good thing these artists didn’t need to understand them to paint pretty palominos. Be sure to also check out the art of white (pt. 2), black (pt. 2), red & pinto horses.

Centaur Art
In creating and maintaining this site I’ve been feeding an appreciation for art more than anything else. It’s been great fun to find horse art from many different places and in many different styles.
Unique Art For A Unique Creature
Today I thought I’d stray from the norm and share something even more unique, art that celebrates the strange creature that is called Centaur. Half man, half horse – this is one creature from mythology that grapples with a real identity crisis with a notorious reputation that proceeds them.

Pinto Horse Art
It’s no secret the the pinto is (probably) my favorite horse coloration – piebald, skewbald I love them all. There is just something about the contrast between bold colors on a field of bright white.
All the Pretty Horses
Recently I’ve been doing a weekly post featuring different horse colors in art. It’s interesting to see how artists portray different coat colors and a fun collection to have. So far I’ve shared white (pt. 2), black (pt. 2) & red horses in art and today it’s all about those spots! Spotted animals are thought to be of ancient origin and despite common misconception pintos (& appaloosas) aren’t a product of the wild wild west. Their roots go way further back in history and they were often reserved for the wealthy or royalty.

Impressionist Horse Art
While admittedly impressionism isn’t my favorite of art forms, it does have a simple beauty that can’t be denied. In my searches for horse impressionism my appreciation for this artistic type has actually grown…some of these are magnificent.
I’ve Got the Impression
Although I couldn’t find any Monet horses, I was able to locate some of the other greats & I’m delighted with this collection. Obviously online isn’t the best venue for this type of art, but if you stand back from your computer & use your imagination you can get the idea.
