Description

I guess you can say I'm pretty tired of all the snow and wind we've been having in Colorado the last 6 weeks so this is my dreaming of summer piece for now:) This is my Morgan mare Juanita dreaming of running through the tall grass in the late warm sunset light. The title is from the song of the same name by Chris Rhea. It always makes me think of and long for summer:) "...and still I stand this very day With a burning wish to fly away I'm still looking Looking for the summer..." This piece will also be available in 8x10 and 12x16 prints starting in early February. Hope this warms you all up some!

... everybody have snow :( but not we in south part of Sweden, darn we have around +10 celsius !!! Should be -10. Anyway -great image, I like the colors and that the image is simple in a good way (by simple I mean it is not messy) you only have 3 elements in the image; horse, sky and grass -where well done and keep up the great work

Thank you, Laurie, for your warm thoughts! I'ts been too long since I've been back to my own country(Sweden). I very much long to see real snow again, anyway. I love Japan, but there is not enough winter here. As always, a beautiful piece and another for my FAV'S box;-) Michael

How warm and inviting. Your Juanita has to look spectacular in all the seaons, and particularly beautiful with a golden summer glow on her coat as she is running through the grassy fields. Another awesome artwork, Laurie. Your work has so much soul, and I like those lyrics.:o) CC

Oh yes this is exactly what I need theese days, where it is raining and raining, storming and raining for long time, with only half a days break once in a while here in Denmark. Thank you so much for sharing this outstanding peace of wonderful art. What a gorgeous horse. And thanks for the warming words too. Have a lovely warm day yourself. :))) Helle

So warm colors and light, wonderful work, Laurie :) Regarding the "snow issue", this year was my first christmas without it. Something was surely missing...

The texturing of the horse is gorgeous. Stunning piece. And yes, it makes me long for summer and I'm now painfully aware of the fact that I'm stuck in 30 degree weather.
