In Italian, Di Lusso stands for something that is classy, of high quality, stylish, and expensive. I named this artwork Di Lusso because of the feeling that this image brings. An image highlighting luxury items and high-end horses, an equestrian's dream. Elegant and sleek are the two words that come to my mind when looking at this photograph. I wanted to portray a feeling of power and luxury when I was setting up this concept. The Italian-made saddle perfectly frames this beautiful horse standing tall and proud on a classy farm located in Wellington, Florida. A friend of mine who is a show jumper and competes all over the world helped me bring this vision to life. We set up a white backdrop and staged this horse right in front of it on a gorgeous sunny afternoon. To me this photo provides a look into the equestrian lifestyle, focusing on one of the main essentials that most will identify with as an industry standard. The saddle not only serves its purpose but it has to also look good doing so. The brown oiled leather matches this horse's coat while complimenting the sleek stirrups shining in the sun. An artwork that will create conversation and set the tone in anyone's home.
