Pale girl sits atop a pony, protected from the sun’s rays as apples fall from a tree nearby. The pony, meanwhile, stares blankly at the ground. Although Meloy’s familiarity with animals shows in his representation of anatomy and posture, the bright sun (and perhaps his interest in abstraction) washes away finer details of the scene; the watercolor becomes a composition in red, yellow, white, and brown, with carefully chosen accents of blue.
