I just painted this after visiting the Kentucky Derby Museum in Louisville, where I attended a business meeting. This place is fantastic. For only $40 one can attend, roam the back lots where all the owners, trainers, and jockeys are - or view from the infield where all the crazy crowds go. The museum is fantastic! One can get on a mechanical horse and "reality race", watch videos of lots of famous winners over the years, etc. I didn't know that Sea Biscuit and Man 'O War never raced in the Derby!!!This was my first semi-attempt to paint something a little abstract. What fun!
