FINE ART BY MELODY PEREZ - MUSTANG PAINTER OF NORTHERN COLORADO

Painting by Melody Perez
The year end is coming and some of our artist and photographer friends have done astounding work over the last 12 months. Today I saw a large (150+) Elk move across a section of Forest Service Land and as I and my entire neighborhood stopped doing what they were doing, we all watched...as they moved sometimes like the Aurora Borealis, sometimes standing like a woolball, then again totally looking like WILD HORSES, grullas and duns, heads down with long manes and one cannot help to be in AWE. What is that, we are not hunters or look forward to a bounty - it is just mesmerizing to watch the colors and bodies weave in and out of each other...with grace and power alike. And though Wild Horse Herds do not come in 100's they make up for it in thunder and stillness alike...Something happens to the EYE and it is connected to the HEARTand it has to do both with OTHERNESS and LIKENESS...

I would like to thank the painters and photographers of WILD HORSES this year for all the love and skill and passion that has flown into these marvellous pieces of art and those compassionate attempts to enlighten and eternalize our WILD HORSES OF THE SANDWASH BASIN and all other AREAS>
