"Sunset Retreat" |
|
It's that magic time of
the evening and that romantic time of year as late summer passes into early
autumn. The family has gathered on the dock for one last try at hooking a
big one. But Dad is already preparing for hunting season. Through the window
of his workshop we see shotguns out and ready for cleaning. Leftover shells
from last year stand on the window ledge like silent soldiers for
inspection. The dogs, anticipating their favorite sport, have scattered the
once neatly stacked wooden decoys in the yard. As a trio of mallards wing
quietly across the setting sun only one dog notices. Soon it will be dark
and the family will retire to the cabin for supper. With a workshop separate
from the main cabin, Mom and Dad each have, in the artist's words, "their
own piece of heaven". |
