Far from Home

Description

“Far from Home” reminds me of my solitary journey as an artist and that, I too, am far from home (destination). Many and most hours of my day are spent in quietude of the studio with my dog Cricket. This is one of my most loved paintings. I fall in love with the animals as they come to life on my canvas. This Cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) in a dust storm is no exception. The simplicity of Cheetah, sand and shadow is all I felt was needed. Anything more would be too much.
