Commission done for
CrimsonLeonore of their character Eroica! Big thank you there :)
This was requested to be a painting evocative of Bethoven's 3rd symphony and the famous Napoleon in the Alps painting.
The initial direction i took it in was entirely different, much more fantastical and in a way closer to some of my earlier works from years back but it just wouldn't blend well at all with how i approach things nowadays. So it was one of those paintings that was scrapped in the middle of the process and started new from scatch.
This new one is a little tamer in a way, but works much better with my current sensibilities and hopefully that shows in the outcome as well.
Once again thank you to
CrimsonLeonore for this fun picture to work on! Wooo!

You are amazing!
Note: When you ride "bareback" thou, that is, without a saddle, like the old Greeks, that's a different story. Then the knees will be forward and high, like in jumping seat, except with no stirrup the lower leg just hangs vertically.
