If Heartaches Were Horses | Original Oil Painting
Couldn't load pickup availability
If heartaches were horses, maybe they’d look a little something like this—scuffed and wind-beaten, eyes full of stories they’ll never tell. There’s a quiet resilience in the way he holds his head, like he’s lived through the storm but hasn’t let it take him down.
This original horse painting is done entirely in oil, using bold, expressive brushstrokes to capture both movement and emotion. Shades of red, blue, and gold collide across the canvas, giving this piece a sense of raw, unfiltered energy. It's modern Western art with heart—wild, worn, and still kicking.
If Heartaches Were Horses is a powerful addition to any Western art collection and a striking piece for lovers of equine art, emotional storytelling, and contemporary oil painting.
