Viktor Bastrykina – Equine and Animal Art Portfolio

A refined studio-style equine portrait against a seamless charcoal-grey backdrop, featuring a silver dapple Andalusian in three-quarter profile. The horse’s luxuriant, wavy mane cascades down the arched neck like satin, individual strands sharply defined. Controlled softbox lighting from above and slightly to one side creates a sculptural interplay of highlights and shadows across the muscular neck, shoulders, and delicately flared nostrils. The background fades to deep, velvety darkness at the edges, isolating the luminous figure. Composed tightly with the head and upper torso filling the frame, the shallow depth of field keeps every hair on the face crisp while allowing the mane to drift into slight softness. The atmosphere is formal, museum-like, and highly sophisticated, echoing classical oil portraiture translated into photographic realism.
An elegant group composition of three horses—an ebony-black warmblood, a golden palomino, and a steel-grey mare—standing close together in a fog-laced meadow at dawn. Each coat reflects the cool early-morning light differently, from the velvet absorption of the black to the soft shimmer of the palomino’s pale mane. Low-lying mist curls around their legs, and distant treelines dissolve into a soft, atmospheric blur. The rising sun casts a subtle pastel gradient across the sky, with light grazing their backs and creating delicate rim highlights. Photographed at a slightly low angle with a wide aperture, the horses occupy the central band of the frame, their forms overlapping in a harmonious, painterly rhythm. The overall mood is serene, poetic, and timeless, evoking fine-art photography suited to a high-end portfolio.
A sophisticated still life of an artist’s equine painting in progress, without showing the artist. A large, finely stretched canvas on an easel displays a partially completed, hyper-realistic horse head emerging from a softly blurred background. Rich earth-tone oil paints glisten on a wooden palette resting on a nearby taboret, with several high-quality brushes laid with their bristles stained in sienna and umber. The studio features a textured concrete wall and a simple wooden floor, minimalist and uncluttered. Natural north light pours in from an unseen window, providing cool, even illumination that brings out subtle brushwork and depth in the painted eye. Shot from a slightly oblique angle with moderate depth of field, the mood is contemplative and intellectual, emphasizing process, craft, and the sophistication of fine equine art.
A close-up photographic study of a chestnut horse’s head, turned slightly three-quarters to camera, with a fine leather bridle and delicate silver buckles catching the light. Every whisker around the soft muzzle, each eyelash, and the subtle flecks in the deep brown eye are rendered with meticulous realism. The background is a dark, blurred stable interior with hints of textured wooden planks. A single high side window casts a shaft of warm, directional light across the face, carving out planes of bone and muscle and leaving the far side in gentle shadow. Composed using the rule of thirds with a very shallow depth of field, the mood is intimate, contemplative, and quietly luxurious, ideal for a sophisticated equine art portfolio hero image.

Auftragskunst

A cinematic night-time stable exterior under a clear starry sky, focusing on one slightly open stall door with warm light spilling from within. The weathered dark timber walls contrast with the meticulously polished brass nameplate on the half-door, catching the stable light. A neatly coiled lead rope hangs on a hook, and a pair of brushed leather boots rests beside the threshold, hinting at high-level sport horses inside. Cool moonlight washes the cobblestone aisle in soft blue tones, while the interior stall light creates a glowing, inviting focal point. Photographed from a low angle down the aisle, the perspective draws the viewer toward the illuminated doorway. The atmosphere is hushed, intimate, and slightly dramatic, merging rustic textures with a refined, cinematic photographic realism suitable for a niche portfolio section.

Individuelle Pferdeporträts nach Foto, dynamische Polo- und Rennszenen sowie Serien für Ställe, Vereine und Züchter – persönlich abgestimmt auf Format, Technik, Budget und Termin.

A dynamic action scene of a bay showjumper clearing a minimalist white vertical fence in an outdoor arena, captured at the precise moment of suspension. The horse’s forelegs are tucked neatly, hindquarters pushing off the ground, with the glossy bay coat catching fragmented sunlight. Tiny particles of sand and dust are frozen mid-air around the powerful hooves. The arena background—green hedges, distant decorative standards, and a low, modern clubhouse—is rendered in tasteful blur. Late afternoon golden hour light streams in from behind, creating dramatic rim lighting along the horse’s outline and casting a long, elegant shadow forward. Shot from a low, slightly off-center angle, the composition feels bold and cinematic, with a crisp, contemporary photographic realism that underscores athleticism and precision.
