A beautiful Texas Hill Country scene painted from the ?minds eye? of landscape and wildlife artist, James Lasswell is the subject of this painting, The New Fence, that has been professionally reproduced in print. The early morning sun bathes the valley in the distance with hues of gold and yellow in contrast with the Texas blue sky. The abundant spring rains have brought forth the lush green foliage and wildflowers to dominate the landscape, only yielding to the tracks made by the occasional visit of a rancher?s truck and kept worn by the cattle and wildlife, who follow them from one pasture to another. A relic of the past, so prominent in the Hill Country, the rock fence, has been replaced with the more efficient and easily maintained version of barbed wire and cedar posts. One can only imagine the owner?s reluctance to have replaced this beautiful architectural masterpiece, placed there from the sweat of the brow of his forefathers. Perhaps he can take solace in the fact that remnants of their hard work will remain evident after ?the new fence? is long gone. Additional Hill Country features depicted are native flower and fauna, wild flowers, mesquite and liveoak trees, and the oak tree. James has been painting and drawing for many years, perfecting his technique and unique style. ?The New Fence? is his second release of a print in color, following the release of ?Hill Country Retreat?. The image size is of the print is 16 X 20 inches, with a 2 inch white border, making it an overall size of 20 X 24 inches, a perfect size that provides many options for framing, from the budget minded to the elaborate.
