Knowing

“Knowing” is an original horse painting by Tara Verkuil that continues her expressive new horse series with bold color, instinctive line, and emotional force. Measuring 36" W x 36" H, this mixed media work captures the energy of the horse in a way that feels intuitive, modern, and deeply alive.

Part of Tara’s newest body of work, “Knowing” moves beyond literal representation and into something more felt than defined. The horse emerges through sweeping marks, layered color, and open space, with vivid passages of turquoise, coral, pink, red, olive, and soft neutrals creating a composition full of movement and charge. The piece feels both immediate and mysterious, as if the image is still arriving while somehow already fully present.

In “Knowing,” Tara leans into abstraction to capture not just the horse’s form, but its spirit. Loose lines, drips, and energetic gestures create a sense of personality and presence, while the composition holds a beautiful tension between strength and sensitivity. It is a painting that invites both emotional connection and curiosity.

Created with Tara’s signature mixed media process, this work reflects her love of spontaneity, texture, and expressive mark-making. Every layer adds depth, motion, and a sense of discovery.

Whether installed in a contemporary home, office, or thoughtfully designed interior, “Knowing” brings vibrant color, movement, and a striking sense of life to the space.
