Original oil paintings Wild Horses, Football and Rain Girls by Karen Tarlton
24x36
Into the Light
Like ghosts these beautiful creatures move effortlessly and I love painting them.
This one has a soft and more ethereal feel.
Facing the Storm
12x16
Sold
This was painted for a collector specifically to use
for a poster for VaGirlsSummit at George Mason-
girls are stressed out and feel the need to be perfect and this painting
hopes to show them facing the world head on and says "you are doing enough right now" in bold,
colors and strokes of paint.
8x8
The Running Back
Well each of these has a unique story.
Football has been in the news a lot lately and on my T.V. as my husband is a huge fan,
and I don't much understand the game but I do appreciate the athletes and always
seem to see a potential painting in just about everything.

I've painted this painting before in similiar color and composition and I really like. It's small enough to fit just about anywhere and looks great framed or not.
Lot's of holiday baking going on around here with me daughter's off for winter break and the house smells delicious all day long! I love the smell of gingerbread baking. We just finished decorating and have our tree up. We always get a fresh cut tree and it's so much work but so much fun. The whole house smells like fresh pine tree and cookies! Hope you are having a special week with your family as well!

This is very heavy with oil texture and rich buttery paint. I love the creamy colors and it has fluid movement and expressive palette knife work....one of my favorites yet! The horse is such a beautiful, powerful creature and one of my favorite animals to paint! I hope you enjoy them!
They help remind us about what's important in life....

Thick palette knife work and bold fauvism color in this peice of abstract expressionism. I like to keep my horse paintings loose and focus on generating movement and energy through color combinations and textures. Just the right size painting to hang about anywhere too!
I hope you visit my Etsy store to find all my new works and excellent prices on this piece and all my other paintings as well!

Abstract Running Horses
Title: Abstract Running Horses
Size: 9 x 12
Oil
"Man needs color to live; it's just as necessary an element as fire and water."
Matisse is one of my favorite inspirations and I consider him one of the greats in the fauvism movement. Fauvism takes a leap beyond impressionsm into almost abstraction, but not quite. I just love the bright colors and energy of this style and it lends itself well to palette knife work. Brilliant!
This painting would make a fantastic gift for the holidays!
