Still playing waiting for a ride | 9" x 12"
About the Artwork
Still Playing Waiting for a Ride is a 9" x 12" oil painting by Peter Shostak created on canvas. Shostak is known for preserving the rhythms of prairie childhood, where winter evenings often stretched late into play.
The painting shows a group of children in a snowy field under a vast starry sky, their toboggans in tow as they continue to play while waiting to be picked up. Golden stubble and a hay bale peek through the snow, anchoring the scene in the prairies. The title captures the familiar anticipation of waiting for a ride home, but with the determination to make the most of every moment outside. Shostak transforms this simple delay into a universal memory of childhood, where time was measured less by the clock than by play itself.
