Bold Spirit St IV

Bold Spirit State IV, an R.C. Gorman ink drawing, is the blue-ink variation of the Bold Spirit series, presenting the iconic rearing horse in vibrant ultramarine strokes across a warm vintage-cream paper. The switch from black to saturated cobalt transforms the energy of the piece, giving the horse a mythic, almost dreamlike quality as the flowing mane and tail scatter blue sparks across the ground. Signed by Gorman, the drawing demonstrates the artist’s delight in color experimentation even within a single motif. A coveted completion piece for collectors assembling all four Bold Spirit states, and a compelling stand-alone addition for fans of Gorman equine drawings, Native American animal art, and Southwest fine art originals.
