Thank you Charles very much

Awesome. You have perfectly captured the drudgery of the working coal mine. It reminds me of a Welsh story that I think was titled the "Littlest Pony."

Awesome!!! I lot of my uncles worked in mines!!!! V/F

Shades of yesteryear for me! My daddy was a coal miner in So. IL. Dad told many stories about those mules being so stubborn ... BUT they could sense danger a mile away. Miners always paid attention to the reactions of the mules. Super image!

Thank you very much Chrisann

Thank you Krista for the feature in Collectors Treasyres

It is good to be reminded of how things were, and through your art is a good way!

Complex method of expression, Jeff! Very nicely done!

I just love this depiction of the coal miners. Tells a great story...v/f

What a strong and compelling expression of an experience few of us have lived or can imagine. The colors, composition, and style converge to create a mood of dread and danger. I'm amazed you could get a mule to go in at all!

Great painting, good story. I can't imagine taking a Mule into close quarters in the half light, no place to go if /when they act up. f/v

Thank you for the feature in Heroes and Heroines

Jeffrey-Great depiction , great artwork, it really tells a story. Not only is the work dangerous, now you add another unknown element of a beast of burden known for its stubborness. It looks like the mule may be taking aim to punt the miner down the shaft..Thanks for your comments on my artwork...Jack

Very nice painting Jeffrey, Do you miss going down? thank you

Great art work, Jeffrey! It was hard work for both, the people and the mules!

Splendid details and colours, Jeff! This piece represents the essence of communication! No words are necessary! Excellent work!

Awesome Jeff! great historical art work! FAV
