This is a series of art that I started working on in 2006 and am continuing to add to the body of work. It started out as paintings of horses from the "Rapa das Bestas" that takes place in Northwestern Spain every summer. Hundreds of wild horses are rounded up every year to outdoor pens to be sheared and marked. During this time I read an article in the newspaper about the mistreatment of horses being slaughtered for meat and exported to Europe and Asia. Somehow I wanted to use my art to make people more aware of this injustice.
