"Brahman" by Susan Toplikar (c) 2004 Susan Toplikar & Photos by Stu Jenks
A painting by North Carolina artist Susan Toplikar. I love her. I love her work. I love her husband Mike Cindric too.
I had the privilege to sleep under this painting, when I standed with Susan and Mike earlier this month in the beautiful Oakwood section of Raleigh.
Fun fact: There are six paintings in this series (I think) and they are huge, around 6 feet by 4 feet.
Quote by the artist: "These paintings really aren't about horses."
You got that right, as Victoria Hardy would say.
I sleep well with these colors above my head. (Actually, I was a bit restless those nights, but not due to the beauty created by men and women, but rather because of the ugliness of some people.) I hope to sleep beneath this horse again someday.
To see more images of 'Brahman', go to Susan's website at this link.
You're welcome here anytime, Stu. The spare bedroom is always open to you...
