Shade and honey

I could look in your face for a thousand years
it’s like a civil war of pain and of cheer
but if you were a horse
I could help you with your chains
I could ride you through the fields
by your fiery mane

May your shade be sweet
and float upon the lakes
where the sun will be
made of honey

    Beautiful. Could these be the fire horses of chinese astrology? Probably not, but a great piece, full of fire of its own. Great work.

    This captures something of the nature of horses, social animals, sometimes a bit nervy. The lines makes me think that they are just bursting with some energy that they will express any minute…the colour communicates their friendliness. Well, that’s some of what I get out of it. Really great idea to do the different colour treatments in this theme, too. I really like what you have achieved here. I agree about the Munch vibe as well. Lovely….
