Contemporary Action Horse Racing Painting on Canvas

This is a large-scale contemporary mixed media or oil painting on canvas, displayed vertically on a black floor easel. The artwork depicts a dynamic horse racing scene featuring a jockey in blue and white checkered silks riding a brown horse. The composition is highly expressive, utilizing an impasto technique with frequent palette knife marks that create a heavy, tactile surface texture. The color palette is vibrant, dominated by electric blues in the background and a chaotic mix of reddish-browns, yellows, and whites in the lower foreground, suggesting the motion of kicked-up dirt and dust. The jockey's face and the horse's blinkers (also checkered) are rendered with high contrast. The painting appears to be on a gallery-wrapped canvas with no visible frame. There is a noticeable high-gloss sheen across the surface, possibly from a heavy varnish or resin finish. The condition appears excellent with no visible cracking, chips, or loss of pigment, suggesting a contemporary 21st-century creation. The style leans toward contemporary impressionism with a focus on movement and energy rather than photographic realism.
