Painting on canvas from my popular Ned Kelly series . The painting portrays the Australian outlaw Ned Kelly astride a remarkable mechanical horse. Kelly, recognizable by his iconic square helmet with a slit for the eyes, exudes an air of defiance and determination. His steampunk-inspired armor hints at a fusion of history and futuristic technology.The mechanical horse, meticulously detailed, features gears, joints, and rivets, evoking a sense of intricate craftsmanship. Its metallic body contrasts starkly against the vivid red background, which fades into lighter hues toward the horizon. The warm red palette envelops the entire composition, creating a harmonious unity that both intensifies the emotional depth and ties together the disparate elements of the scene. The choice of color conveys a blend of passion and warmth, mirroring the fiery spirit of a man who defied the odds. Acrylics on canvas.
