Boyhood Experiences Gave Inspiration for This Dramatic Scene

Years:
Painted: 1985 Published: 1985

Boyhood experiences gave inspiration to the artist for this dramatic scene. During winter nights he hunted the countryside for cottontail rabbits, and yard lights from nearby farms became friendly beacons to guide him home. These snow geese, contrasted against the dark sky are attracted by the same lights, but unlike the artist have been directed to the wrong home.
