Description
Foinavon was the horse that won the 1967 Grand National with odds of 100-1, he started at the rear of the field, pretty much every horse in front of him fell at fence 23 (which is now named after him). We often meet customers at our shows who parents won quite a lot of money on that race! The jockeys silks were black with a red and yellow vertical stripe – he’s the horse 6th from the left in my painting.
I produced this painting using fluid acrylic paints, letting them drip down the canvas to produce abstract shapes, I then ‘found’ the horses within the paint, adding the jockeys once I had defined the field. The heads are the last thing I paint and I always do a leg and head check to make sure that there are enough horses for the riders
All our prints are gallery quality and are produced on 240gsm archival paper using Epson Ultra Chrome pigment inks.
Mounted prints are sent in clear protective bags with backing boards. We use textured, antique white, acid free, white core mounts to ensure that they will remain in perfect condition for years to come.
For our framed prints we use contemporary frames in either black or white which are ready to hang straight on your wall. We use acrylic rather than glass to frame our 15” x 12” prints as it is safer to send, it will not affect your viewing experience at all.
A2 prints are sent in cardboard tubes, please note that the image shown above may differ slightly due to the print ratios. Please see the A2 section to see the exact image.
