Distant Memories
Ancient Ones, I remember you
You existed before time. You danced in the in-between.
Wind was your element. Earth your form.
Water your soul. Fire your nature.
I offer tribute by writing words you cannot speak
And painting that which you truly are
So others will remember..."

THE STORY BEHIND THE ART
This painting was created from some sketches I created many years ago. When I began the process of creating the sketches into a work of art, I began to feel that the horses were familiar. They seemed like ancient souls who were untainted by earthly bonds. In meditation, I had a vision of a place where all reality was made of colored sand. A deep peace settled in my heart. The only sound was the wind. The sand blew in the wind, and the colors coalesced into forms. The forms were of the horses I had painted.
