Painting of the Day: November 15, 2011

DateTuesday, November 15, 2011 at 10:45PM

By Donna Poulton

The painting Moving Cattle is typical of the unusual aerial perspective and bold shadows found in much of Howard Post’s work.  Raised on a cattle ranch near Tucson, his paintings are narratives of life and labor on a working ranch.

Post has a complex way of simplifying, which always produces a very enjoyable result.
