This is a 40x50 inches canvas done using oils ,acrylics and Palet Knifes in impasto impressionistic style.
As M. A. Steinberger said, a racing saddle will allow a horse to go fastest. This is less about the weight than it is about balance. As she pointed out, having the rider’s weight directly over the withers provides the least amount of interference with the horse’s movement. Weight is an issue because the horse will tire more quickly with more weight and thus slow down.

So, the horse with the most balanced rider will outrun an equally fast horse with a poor rider, almost regardless of saddle. Of course, when we’re talking about top tier horse racing, the jockeys are more equally skilled (athletically) than the horses. Strategy (and luck) starts to matter most.

So, if a lightweight saddle that puts the rider over the withers helps a horse run its fastest, why do barrel racers use western saddles? (Keep in mind that a barrel racing saddle is a completely different animal from a roping saddle even if they look superficially similar.) Aside from tradition, the main answer is the turns. If you watch barrel racers, you’ll see that they do stand up and lean forward on the straightaways, but they have to sit down to make those incredibly tight turns (and many use the horn for balance as well). I don’t think any barrel racer could run a pattern at their speediest time with no saddle.

Anand Manchiraju is an internationally acclaimed, award-winning artist based in India. Living close to Himalaya Mountains, he is inspired by the splendors of nature although his subjects vary from landscapes to cityscapes, still life, figurative, portraits, some digital art and Hindu gods and goddesses.

Anand considers himself an artist by birth, photographer by profession and sculptor by practice. He is an experimentalist at heart. He enjoys experimenting with art style, medium and the tools he uses. He has worked with traditional oils on canvas, acrylics on canvas to his own unique mediums - photographic chemicals on bromides (which he calls photo-paintings) and oil and acrylic on x-ray films.

Anand’s artistic style ranges from impressionistic to abstract.

Anand Manchiraju Artist Statement

When I reflect upon my long association with art, I find that the creative process is just as intriguing and rewarding as the final outcome of my projects. This desire to create has always been strong even when others have tried to dissuade me. The internal push to create has given me an appreciation for the process of exploration, patience, and the beauty of art. I believe this creative and explorative journey has become about freedom to create and the freedom to express myself.
