Description
In Boulder County, two donkeys in a brilliant yellow dandelion field are sharing their thoughts about this and that. At their tranquil farm in Longmont, Colorado, they are enjoying a sunny day and indulging in friendly gossip, amid nibbles on the succulent grasses and flowers they enjoy.
Joel created this sparkling rural scene in his signature neo-impressionist style, to express the deep intuitive kinship shared by animals when they are together in a natural environment.
Although we as humans speak with one another, donkeys seem to have a deeper instinctive knowing that lets them communicate on a subtle level. Perhaps they are showing us how we might listen with kind attention to our own intuitive inner voice.

Beautiful work Joel. I love how you got the texture of the wooly coats of the donkeys. I used to live in Golden for many years.
Joel Bruce Wallach replied:
Thank you, Bunny; Golden is beautiful, though I don't know if donkeys would appreciate the snowy mountainous parts!

Hi Joel, this is adorable, I love the way you did this work. And I am so happy you used dandelions, they get a raw deal quiet often when in reality they are quiet beautiful as you have shown here!!! L/F
Joel Bruce Wallach replied:
Many thanks, Debra; dandelions are wonderful plants, and it is unfortunate that they are judged as common weeds!
