Pink Cap, Blue Cap (2009) channels the electric energy of head-to-head competition through a vivid interplay of texture, line, and hue. Executed in mixed media on card, the work captures two jockeys mid-race, their forms abstracted into a storm of expressive strokes and vibrant colour. The dynamic composition pulses with urgency, evoking the rhythm and drive of the sport while maintaining an emotional immediacy that transcends realism.
