$100 © Pam Van Londen 2007 Texas Pasture 2 acrylic on canvas on 18 x 14 x 1 canvas
When it’s not raining here in Pumpkin, the days are quite sunny and warm. I’m able to paint at least once a week, sometimes twice.
When I step outside each morning, I see this peaceful pasture with tall tangled trees. Various birds serenade us by day and crickets and frogs by night. The horses roam around scrounging for grass here and love to greet us at the fence; hoping for treats.
The pasture outside our door this week is home to some bulls used in rodeos. Two calves were born this week. They didn’t make it into the painting but might next time I’m out able.
The recent rains have not turned the pasture green but the frogs are awake making quite a racket. I suspect they are sitting in that pond beyond the pine tree.
