Alone in the Night
Oil on canvas 2025
Bobby Parsons

I never stood out there with her β€” this came more from a dream than a memory. But I can imagine it plain as day: a cow on the prairie in the dead of winter, standing quiet under a cold moon. Snow’s got that green-blue glow, sagebrush catching just a whisper of light, and the only company is her own long shadow.

It’s the way I figure a night out there would feel β€” lonely, cold, but kind of peaceful too.

Good morning from Germany my friend, . You have implemented the feeling of loneliness and cold well. The colors fit perfectly.πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺπŸ”ͺ

beautiful! Love the highlight of the moon on the snow, casting the lonely shadows

Thanks Dirk!

Thanks Carolyn!

A beautiful scene; I love the light wash of green on the ground. Great color palette!

Really nice work and that cow sure does look lonely!

Thanks Kerri!

Thanks Sandy!

I have to say, the lighting here is just beautiful! Super well done Bob! Love this one!

Thank you. Kind of a silly subject but my goal was the sky vs moonlight on the snow.
