Description
I paint farm animals. They are a gift to me and a joy, and I can extend my time with them by my brush and watercolor paints. I have spent fifty years of my life working with them each day on Sawyer Farm, our fifth generation New Hampshire dairy farm nestled since 1858 on the rocky soil under Mount Monadnock in Jaffrey.
In words, animals canÕt speak, but they surely can communicate if we but listen. As an artist, I can give words to their stories, or even better, share a visual feeling minus the actual words.
Family farming in New England is so very fast becoming extinct, replaced by the final crop, houses and parking lots. Perhaps some real farms can be reborn in our small niche farms with organic leanings that are presently fighting for survival. Knowing who raised our food and how the animals are cared for seems important to our well-being. This calls for dedication above the ordinary.
