From just the other side of a split rail fence, we look downhill to a pasture and then patchwork of fields in the valley below. A stream cuts across diagonally and passes under a covered bridge; a horse and foal stand in the foreground, with sheep resting behind them. It’s a peaceful moment at dawn, a few pink clouds hovering nearby. Sabalauskas’ steep ramp of solarized colors ranges from golden pastures nearby to violent mountains in the distance. Note: this digital image is from a photograph taken during the 1990s; the painting has disappeared from the New Deal Gallery.
