Description
A team of white Percheron and a team of Belgian work horses rest in the shade of a Pine tree after a hard days work in the fields. It's hot out. Heat rises from the ground. The lone pine barely offers enough shade. Sun dapples their hide.
This is a large painting, 30x40 inches painted from life while standing in the barn after un-harnessing the teams. These are working horses on our ranch in Eastern Washington. They do field work and cut their own hay. Life is good, as it should be when one lives in harmony with natureand an artist has such wonderful models to paint. If you expand this painting you can appreciate the bravura brushwork of thin washes done with the brush and thick impasto knife work. I try to achieve a balance of drawing and painting. Painting is about life as are horses and ultimately, life.
