Free Spirit | Original Oil on Linen 32.5" x 39" Framed | Keith Maiden

Free Spirit is a stunning oil painting on linen that captures the essence of untamed beauty and grace. The focal point of the piece is a majestic white horse, its mane flowing wildly in the wind as it gallops through an open landscape. With every brushstroke, the artist conveys a sense of movement and freedom, emphasising the horse’s powerful yet elegant form.

The background is a blend of soft, earthy tones and dynamic sky hues, creating a dreamlike atmosphere that enhances the horse’s ethereal presence. The play of light and shadow on its muscular frame adds depth and realism, making the painting almost lifelike.

Keith Maiden’s use of oil on linen brings a rich texture to the composition, allowing the details of the horse’s coat, the dust beneath its hooves, and the surrounding landscape to stand out vividly. Free Spirit is more than just a depiction of a horse—it’s a celebration of freedom, strength, and the unbreakable spirit of nature.
