Cresent Moon Plow Disk

- by Shelly Bedsaul

This week's theme: The Fox - A Folk Song

When I was little, my Dad used to sing this old folk song quite a bit. The first verse is the one that has stayed with me, and it's the first two lines I find running through my head the most.

The Fox
Oh, the fox went out on a chilly night
And prayed for the moon to give him light
For he had many a mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o
He had many a mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o


Art: Cresent Moon Plow Disk by Artist Shelly Bedsaul
A commission piece, this is an acrylic painting on an antique plow disk. The quote is from a song and a homage to St. Christopher. It just goes to show, no surface is sacred if it will take paint and a perfect upcyled project.
