cows bedding down by dennis roberts

Puts me in mind of one of my poems:<br /><br />By other than the practised mind<br />no words expressed, no epithet,<br />can best describe the coming night<br />where Sirius casts his rays<br />and moonlight silvers flexing grass.<br /><br />Love the dark mystery that this (the picture that is) invokes<br />

Thanks Michael fabulous poem .

Love this painting Dennis.. Wondering if Dennis is okay?

Thanks Maria yes I&#39;m wondering too. Hope he&#39;s okay.

Stunning painting Dennis, super perspective too.

Thanks Cesare glad you like it . most people avoid too much green but I don&#39;t , I like green as much as any other colour . This painting is green but I like it a lot

Brave and masterly composition dennis

The composition, with the cows at the very bottom and the rest given over to the height of the trees, is interesting. It&#39;s hard to put into words but there&#39;s a feeling of immensity somehow.<br />Like Maria and you, I, too, have been missing Dennis and hope he&#39;s ok.

Thanks Derek and Marjorie very much . the composition is unusual but I wanted to show just how big some of these mature poplars are they are like a block of flats almost when you get next to them . Yes I hope Dennis is OK I know his health is not good , and I&#39;m wondering where The is hope she&#39;s OK too.

Thea has apparently left the site altogether Dennis.

Well, you have achieved the effect you wanted with the trees I think. They envelop you. There is just enough anchor with the cows, if that make sense!

Hi Dennis. Lovely painting, has a very special quality about it. Trees are my friends and confidantes. And yes, Thea seems fine, the last time I had news of her from a mutual friend. Wish you well.

Thank you all and yes Gudrun I get where your coming from , and many thanks Ruth for information about Thea much appreciated truly.
