“Flying Horses”
Oil on canvas | 12 ×14
1991

Though not a landscape, the link to the others is that the Flying Horses carousel is in Oak Bluffs, Martha’s Vineyard
and of historical significance, as well as a treat for all island visitors. This scene of the horses as seen outside from an open window.
I wanted to contrast two of the horses– the white one near the window, bright, and “proudly”
sweeping past, against the one in the background, dark, and in the shadows.
