Listen Softly | Original Painting – Equestrian Art with Forest and Moon Phases
$1,609
Original painting by Amber Bahm who grew up with horses in small-town Saskatchewan, Canada.
Have you ever held a horse’s ear in your hand? The back is strong and rigid – and it fits almost perfectly in your palm. And then you can run your thumb through this bowl of thick, soft fuzz. A paradox I find parallel to the strength of a horse versus their flight response. There’s something that feels so natural, ancestral and grounding about spending time with horses. It’s the same feeling you get when you sit on the earth in a quiet forest, or have a little howl at the moon. Like even if life feels a bit shaken up or upside down, there’s this space that makes you feel deeply rooted and connected to self. If I got to choose how you feel when you look at this painting, that is the feeling it would be.
- Original Painting: 16 x 24 inch, 1.5″ deep gallery wrapped canvas. Framed and ready to hang.

A Unique Piece of Contemporary Art
Listen Softly is a one-of-a-kind painting showing a close-up view of the top of a horse's head - it's tangled mane and soft, fuzzy ears. Above this is an inverted view of a dreamlike landscape of misty mountains behind snow-dusted evergreens. Down the center of the painting, seven moon phases connect the surreal mountain landscape to the horse below. The colour palette is composed of muted blue-green-greys. Almost monochromatic. Cool with a subtle warmth you can't quite put your finger on.
This original painting is on a 16" by 24" inch, 1.5" deep gallery-wrapped canvas. Presented ready to hang in a black wooden float frame, extending its depth to 2".
