    Awesome piece Mario! Masterfully rendered and the title is superb.

  • Thanks Ken. I could not decide if I needed more detail but decided it worked as the subject was big, it was all big so left the detail out.

    I really like this – very simple, almost casual – but powerful.

    Beautiful and fun.

  • Thanks Jenny, seen and recalled from memory, they stand out in the middle of farm land, almost surreal
