Series "Heavenly Horses of Tengri"

Here is the new series of art inspired by Tengri, also known as Tengeri - a deity in the traditional shamanistic beliefs of the Central Asian nomadic peoples. Tengri is often considered the supreme god, representing the eternal blue sky, and is a central figure in Tengrism, the ancient belief system of these cultures.

After Tengri created the sky and the earth, he placed a stick between them, and tied heavenly horses to it, which walked all over the sky around. Tengri's breath became the wind and clouds, his voice became thunder, Tengri's right eye was the Sun, and his left eye was the Moon. With thunder and lightning during a thunderstorm, Tengri strikes evil spirits that interfere with the lives of people.

"Guardian of Silence" is the first painting in the series. The picture shows a Friesian horse with whom we became friends at the Chamberlain club - Julia. Although she looks like a fairy tale, in real life she is exactly the same and is written as realistic as possible.

When this portrait is hung in the room above the bed, there is a feeling that a magnificent black horse is guarding the space. And this is how the name of this painting came about.

Materials used:

oil, canvas, gold leaf
