MARTI ADRIAN PRODUCES ARTWORK FOR “ECLIPSED BY SHADOW”
May 16, 2008 | Canadian artist Marti Adrian has created a stunning piece of original artwork that captures the themes of Eclipsed by Shadow.
The central motif is based on an ancient Greek coin featuring Pegasus, the flying horse of mythology. “Eclipsing” the shining Pegasus is the Great Horse Promise, the main equine character of the book. Colorful scenes from the story surround the central coin to symbolize the book’s underlying theme of progress in horsemanship and the advance of civilized life.
Marti Adrian is an artist based in Canada with a special talent for horses. One current project by Adrian is gaining world-wide recognition, Lewis Lavoie’s mural mosaic entitled, Le Cadeau du Cheval (The Horse Gift), in which each mosaic panel is a separate painting by individual artists from all over the world. Another current mosaic project for Adrian is The Glory of Horses, a fundraiser for the rescue and support of unwanted horses. Adrian’s attitudes are noted on her website (www.MartiAdrian.com): “Nothing brings me more pleasure than to portray an animal, especially those magnificent horses. If one of my pieces brings some emotion to your heart, then I have done my job.”
Marti Adrian’s artwork will be displayed on the upcoming Summer 2008 softcover edition of Eclipsed by Shadow.
