Shadows in the West, Part II

By Donna Poulton

"[For] the painter … color has very few thrills.  Almost anyone can see color.  It is in the bright light or in the deep shadows, and the transitions between these, that the painter finds interest."

What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset.
