Roam

Roam | 30 x 40

Acrylic with mixed media on canvas

Roam explores the balance between stillness and freedom. The horse feels grounded and watchful, surrounded by loose marks, layered color, and expressive movement that gives the piece a sense of openness and quiet strength. Soft passages of white and pale blue are contrasted with vivid pink, orange, purple, and deep blue, creating a painting that feels both energetic and spacious.

Rather than a traditional equine portrait, Roam is a layered impression of presence, instinct, and emotional connection. The work brings together Tara Verkuil’s love of horses with her intuitive abstract process, creating a piece that feels alive, sensitive, and full of movement.
