This original oil on board painting depicts half a dozen wild ponies grazing on the Penlan Slopes, an area of importance for nature conservation on the outskirts of Swansea, south Wales. The ponies form a familial group, with at least two foals, one of which is suckling from his mother. The ponies are calm and peaceful, and are painted in the hues of the natural environment around them. The evening sun is shown as a low orange ball of great intensity and its glow bathes the scene in a surreal light. This is a sympathetic and harmonious piece, appealing to nature lovers and horse lovers alike. The style is highly representative of Modern British mid-century homestyle of the 1960’s and 1970’s. Think Ercol, G-Plan, Heals, Conran, Gordon Russell, Robin Day …furniture and design. This piece has an attribution mark,
