Year of the Horse

Taking the "dark horse" as its core image, this piece carries a wish for a smooth and fortunate 2026. The design centers on the horse's graceful movement, using minimal contour lines to capture the tension and fluidity of its form. Grain texture is applied with varying density to recreate the natural sheen of the horse's coat under light, giving the still image a subtle sense of depth. The background draws from Pantone's 2026 Color of the Year, Cloud Dancer, creating a quiet yet powerful contrast against the deep black of the horse.
