Heartfelt

Heartfelt

My heart is as ancient as the sea.
To ride the waves, you must follow me.
I patiently wait for you to feel.
The depths of wisdom which I reveal.
 
In mind and body, heart and soul,
we are gifted with life and thus a role
in the unfolding quest of love and light.
Be still and trust your own insight.
 
~ Kim McElroy

  • THE STORY BEHIND THE ART

    This painting was commissioned by Joy Kimler for the cover of a book she has written titled “Heartfelt”.  She asked me to create a painting of a horse’s eye with a heart symbol somewhere in the composition.  While contemplating her project, I ran across a picture of this beautiful Friesian gelding I had photographed named Wouter, and I knew it wasn’t just a coincidence, that he was the one to model her vision of the heart of the horse.

     

    About the book “Heartfelt”:

    Canadian author, Joy Collier knows from experience that when you meet a horse person, it isn’t long before you are hearing a story about the horse they have now or a horse they used to have. Often the stories are told about the one horse that made an impression, the one that there was a special connection with. Joy realized that it is just such stories that you rarely get to hear from the elite of the horse world.  So she decided to write a book titled “Heartfelt”, a compilation of stories from Canadian equestrians, including Olympic riders and respected leaders in their fields.  Joy’s passion is to share these stories, knowing they will touch the hearts of her readers.  She commissioned Kim McElroy to put her special touch on the cover of this book with her painting “Heartfelt”.

When ordering prints: I have my art custom-scanned with the highest resolution possible to capture every stroke and texture of the original pastel.
