Mrs. Hawthorne


Mrs. Hawthorne is a painting that makes me smile.  We live in the beautiful West Country in southern England  and have the Dartmoor National Park just a few minutes away.  A few weeks ago we spent the afternoon on the Moor and were treated to beautiful views and many animal sightings.  The Dartmoor ponies roam the Moor along with cattle sheep and many kinds of birds.  Mrs. Hawthorne  is my interpretation of a Dartmoor Grey Face which is just one of the breeds living on Dartmoor.
