About the Item
Lesley Humphrey is a British-born artist renowned for her dynamic and expressive equine art. Born in Wigan, Lancashire, she developed a deep connection with horses from an early age, participating in gymkhana and Pony Club events. After a decade in the legal profession, she transitioned to art in 1989, drawing inspiration from her equestrian experiences. Her style is influenced by The Glasgow School, the Russian Itinerants, and American Expressionists of the San Francisco Bay area .
Humphrey's art is characterized by its vibrant colors and dynamic compositions, conveying the energy and passion of the equestrian world. Her works continue to inspire and resonate with audiences worldwide.
One of Humphrey's notable paintings is titled Confidence, Control, Commitment, created in 2019. This piece is part of her series "All You Need for Horse Racing and Life," reflecting her belief in the parallels between equestrian sports and life's challenges. The painting portrays a jockey in mid-race, embodying the qualities of confidence, control, and commitment essential for success in both racing and life .
Another significant work by Humphrey is Challenge, which depicts racehorses galloping through pouring rain. The painting captures a moment of clarity amidst the storm, symbolizing the strength and determination required to overcome obstacles .
