Not too sure if the background is too dark. I wanted it this way so that the rusted metal of the enclisure is only noticed when one looks into the eye and sees the reflection of the stable entrance. Then the viewer might realise where the horse is and only then notice it. But does it work, or does it detract from the painting. Your thoughts please and on any other aspect. All my paintings have a hidden detail that can only be percieved when looking closely. Maybe it does not work with this one.
Oil on board 30 x 23 inches

Will try put up the single foto. Thank you for the guidance thus far Aha it worked thanks for that.:)
