For those who are unaware 2014 is the Year of the Horse according to the Chinese zodiac which relates each year to an animal and its reputed attributes, according to a 12-year cycle. The Chinese also believe that people born under a certain zodiac animal inherit some of that particular creature’s traits… hopefully having a horsey personality is a good thing!
Truthfully, we were really just looking for a good excuse to share these BEAUTIFUL equine paintings with you! Painted by our favourite Cape Town artist, Gavin Collins these striking horse paintings have a dark romantic quality about them. I particularly love the broody and mysterious colour palette.
What do you think, do you like them as much as we do?
