"The Wading Pool"

Transparent watercolor

I like the full scene with its contrast of lights and darks, warms and cools. The different colored horses fluidly moving through the water increase interest, as your senses enjoy the splashing water.

Dimensions: 20"H x 30"W

"Group Therapy"

Oil

The bond of the group is their therapy, like being with your buddies. These horses seemed to enjoy being together as they were taken for a drink. Their comfort with their owner was obvious as their rich coats glistened in the sun.

Dimensions: 16"H x 22"W

$1,600 framed

"Nature's Blues"

I enjoy watching blue birds build their nests, and raise their families. The colors of the foreground, background and the personality of weathered wood on fences tell the story of the these blue birds and their surroundings.

$550 framed
