For as long as I can remember, I've loved watching the Kentucky Derby. One year I was lucky enough to attend and sit in Millionaires' Row. But that's another story.
The easily identifiable twin spires of Churchill Downs are elegant and iconic. That was the inspiration for this painting. The receding buildings provided me with another opportunity for obliques. The line of horses form another. I also used silhouettes to describe the spires to eliminate the details and keep them in the background.
