Summer Grazing original watercolor

“Summer Grazing” depicts a scene that that could play out in any number of places in the world.  It was painted in a workshop setting with guidance by master watercolorist Joseph Zbukvic. 

I imagine good spring rains in an arid landscape had produced lush grass.  But the summer heat has taken it’s toll and left the fat herd with the summer prospect of grazing “standing hay”.
