My Equine Muse


My favourite equine muse in the world is Jazz. I have taken many pictures of this amazing guy (you can see them on my facebook page - c'mon over and become a fan! Renee Fukumoto Art & Photography) Jazz has been my muse for several years. He's the kind of horse that is trustworthy to ride, sensitive in the mouth, responsive and just all around fun. But one of the most exciting things to do is take him into the indoor arena when no one else is around and turn him loose. Explosions of energy and joy! He is the personification of "YeeHAW!" at that point, bucking, jumping and galloping around like the world was created just for him.





Sadly, Jazz has experienced ongoing trouble with Uveitis in his right eye for the past year. It has meant extensive stall rest, dim lighting, loads of medication (which he has so patiently tolerated) and very little opportunity to just be a horse. Thus, his turn out into the indoor arena became more precious. The design on the t-shirt above, of the horse kicking out high behind, is developed from a photograph I took of Jazz on one such occasion. I hope there will be many more to come! You can check out this design on many products by clicking the image or visiting my Zazzle store. Enjoy!

A New Journey Begins

Funny how Dreams alter or are altered by the passage of time and changing circumstances. Perhaps as self-awareness deepens, the Dream must morph to accommodate this understanding or shift in paradigm.

The Journey and the Dream: each profoundly affect the other. The Dream breathes life and sustenance into the Journey, else it would be mere existence; a plodding certainty toward Death. For the Artist, a vision or dream is what drives the journey. As an artist, I am rediscovering my Vision and so my Journey begins anew.

About Me

My photo
I am a freelance visual artist and photographer. Almost anything can find its way into my subject matter and my muse is light - and dark! The drama of contrasts intrigue me. I'm beginning to delve into lifestyle and people portraiture. Life is an incredible journey and I am always amazed at where the journey leads me.
