About the Work
My
first
outing
on
a
horse
at
a
riding
school
was
disastrous!
I
would
have
been
eleven,
and
I
was
too
scared
to
admit
never
having
been
on
a
horse
before.
We
set
out,
and
before
long
came
to
a
broad,
long,
flat
track.
"Aha!"
said
the
horse,
and
let
rip.
I
clung
on
for
dear
life
–
soon
to
be
joined
by
the
instructor
who
promptly
put
me
on
a
leading
rein.
This
picture
has
all
the
elements
of
the
thundering
lunges
I
survived.
