Original artwork description:

Aquarelle on paper presents a scene both charming and subtly absurd. A mare– floats serenely amidst a cerulean sky. Instead of a traditional carriage, she's buoyed by a cluster of pastel-colored balloons, their strings delicately tied to her bridal reins.
The artist's watercolor technique lends a soft, dreamy quality to the absurd premise. The horse's expression is one of calm detachment, as if airborne equine weddings were the most ordinary thing in the world. The sky is dotted with fluffy white clouds, further emphasizing the whimsical, almost fairytale-like setting.
Yet, there's an undeniable irony at play. The juxtaposition of high-society bridal trappings with a barnyard animal, set against the improbable backdrop of the sky, creates a humorous tension. One can't help but wonder if this is a commentary on the dizzying heights some are willing to go to for love, or perhaps a gentle poke at the traditional expectations surrounding marriage. Regardless, it's a delightful and thought-provoking piece that invites a chuckle and a lingering curiosity
