A sibling piece of Nik Rafin’s Runaway Horses illustration, he captures the horses this time from a different angle, with their side profiles in mind. The horses are lined elegantly, their wild, stunning glory showcased beautifully.
They are still moving, trampling and the moment is frozen on Nik Rafin’s canvas, as they race against the wind. Reflecting
Malaysia and its people’s love for racing horses, Nik Rafin creates this ode to these wonderful, magnificent creatures.
