Arion

Description

Painting: Oil on Canvas.

Horse Arion is a creation of the gods in Greek mythology and being "of divine origin", he is immortal. Greek mythology also maintains that Arion helped many heroes, Hercules fought on Arion in a battle. The horse also participated in the chariot race of the first Nemean Games. Arion is known for his speed and ability to fly. In Book 23 of the Iliad, Homer refers to Arion's speed during a chariot race, saying that no runner can win if a rival with Arion is running after him. In other tales, Arion is described as fast and because his legs are light, he can run on water without getting wet or running over thorns without breaking them.

I was inspired by this character because it is associated with lightness and freedom and lives in its own fairy-tale world filled with bright colors.
