Description
I've been sitting on this one for several months during my on-again, off-again absences and while I wrestle with an obdurate health problem. I wasn't sure that I liked this at all but it's rather grown on me over time. It does need to be seen larger though. I've been playing with many different styles, techniques, painting subjects, composites. This is a painting based on a composite image I created - with thanks to forestwander.com for the background.

Beautifully titled. I love the soft lighting on the white horse and then the cows in the distance are a stroke of genius. These are gates to the past that lead to the present, which is still full of life in the animals, geese, trees, and sky. Just lovely emotional work, heartfelt. v/f
