This scene is either on a slate that is approximately 10"x16" or 11"x 15".
This painting depicts a boy and his dog who have come to the end of a country lane, and stand at a crossroad trying to decide which way to go now. We all come to a "crossroads" in our lives. Ask the Lord which way to go and choose wisely.
NOTE: THE SLATE WITH THE BLUE "BACKGROUND" WAS SOLD.
The Bible Scripture on this slate is:
"Then the Lord says:
'Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you shall find in it rest for your souls."
- Jeremiah 6:16
