This from a few years back, my easel set up on Pearl Buck's back porch on what was once her dairy farm. There had been an early snow storm, first week in October, and there was still a bit of snow on the ground. Power was out and travel was limited, so I just decided to make the best of the morning.
The ground had been frosty when I started, and that accounts for the greyish color of the grass in the painting. By the time I shot the pic, the frost had burned off and the horses had moved on.
