All the King’s Horses captures the charged energy of a joust, between encounters. There is dust hanging in the air, the crowd is holding its breath, and the horses and riders are united in fierce concentration. Inspired by the Colorado Renaissance Fair, this painting honors not only the spectacle of medieval pageantry but also the timeless human desire to step into roles larger than life, a thrill shared by the performers and spectators alike.

Within the vision of Little Kingdoms, it speaks to the power of art to carry us into realms of courage, beauty, and drama. As a child, I was endlessly fascinated by knights in armor, and creating this work gave me the chance to revisit that sphere of interest, weaving childhood dreams into my present journey as an artist.
