This painting was created from my reference gathering back in 2015, when we took a trip to NC to jury a miniature art exhibition at Seaside Art Gallery in Nags Head. A sunset jeep tour of the Corolla area to see the wild horses rewarded me with a few hundred photos of various individuals, including this beautiful young mare who was being escorted by a persistent stallion. I also used her in two previous miniature paintings: "The Ocean Muse" and "Racing the Waves". I'm looking forward to returning there at some point in the future.
"Corolla Memories" was part of the 2022 AAEA Juried Exhibition at the Aiken Center for the Arts, Aiken, SC.
