Description
The title for this oil painting Semi-Formal is so fitting. Linda Simon's memories growing up, watching the cows grazing across the road made time go by slow. The wonderful barn is one that is about one mile from were Linda lives at present. People call it the circus barn because when the circus came to town that is were the elephants were kept. The formal band is playing for a wedding in the country and the cows are all lined up, acting as if they are a chorus waiting for their turn to sing. The bass and the trombone players are Linda's nephews. The violin player is a good friend, and hidden on the tags of the cows spells out Hillary, Linda's daughters name. What a way to celebrate!
