Silks at the Start

Capture the electric atmosphere of the racecourse moments before the off. This striking contemporary piece distils the intense focus of horse and jockey into a bold study of form and anticipation.

Brilliant mustard yellow silks contrast sharply against the jockey's cerulean blue hat. The bay horse, sporting a dark blinker hood, is rendered with a mix of solid, deep umber oils and raw, energetic sketch lines that suggest powerful kinetic energy. Soft teal washes in the background allow the vibrant primary tones to dominate, creating a sophisticated tension between finished portraiture and expressive movement.

A superb statement piece for a racing enthusiast's study or a modern living room. Choose a classic Framed Print to highlight the intricate sketch details, or opt for a large Canvas to appreciate the textural depth. Available in 40cm, 70cm, and 90cm sizes, with elegant Black, White, or Natural frames.
