EQUINE ART PAINTING DEMO

The talented equine artist Bärbel Georgi will be appearing at EQUITANA Melbourne, painting a life size statue of a horse over the four days of the event.

Bärbel manages to capture the essence of all her equine subjects through carefully studying their external features. This shows through in her amazing artwork which has been sold throughout major gallaries in Australia and also private collections all over the world. With equine art commissions from some of Australia's most successful horse owners and well known racing clubs, Bärbel's artistic pedigree is flawless. EQUITANA Melbourne invites you to watch Bärbel's progress over the four days, as she brings this huge statue to life with her fantastic talent!

The horse will be located in the foyer to the Epsom Pavilion - stop by and have a look!
