Two horses on Devon coastal path - oil painting

Two horses on Devon coastal path - oil painting

devon horses oil painting by Martin Davey
During a hot summer's day two horses are found walking along a coastal path. They are in Devon, on the south coast of the UK and the location is Westbury. Running into the distance the land ends and falls as a steep cliff to the English Channel. The painting is based on a photo taken nine years previously which featured many more horses, but was simplified for a better composition. The artwork was painted in oils on some mounting board, sized at 20” x 16”. Completed in June 2020 the painting was started way back in November 2020 but halted and basically forgotten while other projects were created.
The artwork can be seen on this 3rd party link in greater detail.
