The Gallery's Perspective
A hush seems to settle across the prairie as the sun lifts the rim of the horizon, and the herd in this panoramic scene responds with the slow confidence of animals at ease. The dappled paint and strong backlight give each horse a soft, luminous edge — manes and flanks catch gold while the shadowed bellies hold cool blues — so the group reads as a single quiet community while still letting individual personalities show. The wide horizontal format emphasizes the openness of their range: low grasses and distant ridgelines stretch the space and make the light feel expansive and early. Small, attentive details — a foal nuzzling close, a horse grazing with a relaxed stance, the careful placement of darker patches on coats — create a calm, lived-in intimacy rather than a posed tableau. Overall, the work offers a gentle, restorative moment: the kind of scene that brings a room a sense of morning light, steady presence, and the easy company of animals moving through their day.

Always knowing she wanted to be an artist, Nancy Glazier's grandmother presented her with her first set of oil paints when she was eight. Her delighted father sold her first painting when she was twelve.
Her family moved to Wyoming when she was sixteen. Glazier was introduced to Cody Museum muralist, Adolph Spohr, who singled her out for private instruction.
Painting is the very breath of her life. While she is painting, Glazier feels complete, joyful, powerful and free. Today, the animals Glazier prefers to paint are truly wild and free. Elk, deer, moose, bear, cougar, coyote, fox, birds from osprey to pine siskin, share their territory with her in the mountains of the Northwest. "My paintings invite you into this world. Journey with me awhile. I will share with you what the eyes of my heart see."
