Girlfriends 16x20 $200.00

...another photo I saw on Facebook. Being a horse lover from way back, this I could not resist. I loved the relaxed pose and the play of darks and lights in this setting. A picture of contentment and controlled power, the relationship between a horse and rider is an fascinating dynamic that only another horse lover can understand. Growing up, I always wanted a horse. Begging my mother and presenting her with various carefully conceived strategies for the animal's upkeep, went ignored UNTIL she presented me with a sewing machine one summer for my birthday. THIS was my horse she said, adding that it did have four legs. I did put a lot of mileage on that sewing machine. In fact, it's still stabled in an upstairs bedroom in perfectly good running condition. Her name is Singer.
