As Natural as Breathing

Posted March 11th, 2010 by Samantha Grass

What else would you do on a rainy day if you were a horse?

Sometimes the best moments in life are spent watching things you don’t quite understand.

There is such beauty in the lines of animals–their movements, simple gestures, silent wondering…

Daring and shy

The personality of an animal is as unique and brilliant as a human. We underestimate their ability to relate to us. We simply don’t listen…or maybe it’s just that we don’t see.

Kind eyes

Kind eyes

The reactions they each give are all so individual, just as a model may have his or her own special glance. They are curious, yet cautious.

Soft lines

The movement of a horse’s form has always brought me inspiration. My horse is my muse.

The softest thing in the world

Sometimes I come to the barn and find my horse is sun-bathing in the paddock. I love seeing him that way. He lets me sit next to him, feeling the warm sand beneath us. I get to share something so simple with him and still it feels so much bigger than me, to be able to share a common feeling with an animal I can’t quite understand…but maybe that’s the point.

Swoosh

I think they want us to listen.

Listening

But they don’t communicate in words…

a window

They think in pictures.
