STAND OF OAKS • • • SOLD

April 21st, 2008

SOLD   8X6 oil on canvas
This was taken from a pasture on a cattle ranch down on the Texas Coastal Plains. The seemingly endless flat land is interrupted only by thickets and stands of oaks, like these. The sun had just begun to rise, and a thin mist was lifting from the ground. There was silence, except for the distant sounds of birds singing in the little grove of oaks. The scene produced a pervasive sense of peace and simplicity that made me want to capture it in paint.
