Beseech
29 May 2026
Acrylic on canvas
16 x 20 in (40.6 x 50.8 cm)


I wanted to make another set of clouds with a palette knife and there was a deadline approaching for an art call. This call was for the Bosque Art Classic at the Bosque Arts Center. I was invited last year so I wanted to submit again. This depicts someone with their horse but we're not sure what is happening. Is the horse tired or sick? Has it passed? Does the rider just need it to go a bit further? In any case, the companion is beseeching the horse to go on.

On the left is the canvas before I started - it was being used as a brush cleaner.
On the right is the frame currently holding Beseech, made from Radiata or Monterey pine.
