Overwhelm

Panel seven of sixteen from the project Origin, is an acrylic on board illustration that portrays a dynamic and powerful scene of a horse rearing up, its muscular form captured in mid-motion as it looks sideways with an expression of overwhelming strength and energy. Nearby, a small roller bird perches calmly on a branch, its vibrant plumage contrasting with the horse’s intensity, symbolizing quiet observation amidst untamed power. The juxtaposition of the majestic, rearing horse and the delicate bird creates a compelling balance between force and stillness in the natural world.
