A gothic reimagining of the legendary Headless Horseman, this acrylic painting captures the spectral rider mid charge, brandishing an axe as his white steed rears through the mist. Inspired by Washington Irving's "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow", the scene blends folklore, movement and cinematic intensity, drawing the viewer into a world of suspense and shadow.

Part of an ongoing exploration of narrative painting, where history, myth and atmosphere converge.
