Almost Home

Almost Home (2004)

Sarah Macdonald

A dark landscape at night with a street light lit Queenslander house in the background, and a wondering dog (Alsatian cross German Pointer) with a long shadow in the foreground.

Sarah created this painting primarily in blues and greens, intentionally lacking black pigments. The painting captures Sarah Macdonald's childhood dog wandering the streets near her mother's home in Gympie, Australia.

It conveys the connection to a loyal companion alone in unfamiliar surroundings.
