Seeing Shepherds

I don’t usually include discussions of paintings on this web site, but in this case I am happy to make an exception.  A
few days ago I saw this astounding painting by Daniel Bonnell, an artist whose work I only recently came to know and appreciate.

The picture is the subject of this week’s short article “A Shepherd for a While” on the Strategic Understanding page.  The article represents a musing on the picture and its subject – the importance of which is not limited to a particular time of the year. 

Don’t miss the  picture at larger size on the article page. It amazed  me and I think it will amaze you, too.
