"On the pasture"

Painting this charming little scene was a pure joy for me. It is partly imaginary and it was inspired by the XIXth century countryside. I hope it can give you a feel of times when life was slower and people lived closer to nature ...

    1. That's great! I hope you enjoyed keeping goats, but I've heard that milking them can be a bit difficult....

  6. Beautiful - it reminded me of a scene from a Hardy novel - Tess of the D'Urbevilles perhaps? :) Have a lovely weekend.
