Grace and Stillness (2025)Oil painting by Ira Whittaker

In this oil painting, I wanted to capture a moment of quiet intimacy — a moment where words are unnecessary, and connection speaks through presence alone. The young woman and the horse share the same space with ease and trust, united by stillness and the gentle rhythm of nature.
There is no tension in this scene, only freedom and mutual understanding. The meadow becomes a sanctuary, a place where time slows down and the soul can breathe.
For me, this work is about harmony — between human and animal, strength and tenderness, movement and rest. It is a reflection of my belief that the most romantic moments in life are often the quietest ones, hidden in nature and felt rather than spoken.
