I need help choosing a title for this painting. I am torn between:

(1)The Sheep's In The Meadow, and

(2)Through The Gate.

Which one do you think suits it best? Or do you have a better suggestion?

How about "A View Through The Gate"?

Elizabeth "I'm Pro-Accordion and I Vote!" B. Oct 7, 2007, 9:59pm EDT

How about "Sheep May Safely Graze," if you are a classical music fan?

I am a lover of classical music, and have sung the Bach Chorale, "Sheep May Safely Graze".

Through The Gate. Great picture.

How about Beyond the Gate?

Claire C. Oct 7, 2007, 10:59pm EDT

Beautiful. I agree with Through the Gate

Anita S. Oct 7, 2007, 11:38pm EDT

Through the Gate- is good. "In the Nature's lap" comes in my mind.

reply to this comment

Marilyn M. Oct 8, 2007, 12:37am EDT

I would prefer something about the sheep.

reply to this comment

Marilyn M. Oct 8, 2007, 12:38am EDT

Ooops. I wasn't finished. I would prefer something about the sheep because they're not as obvious as the gate.

First let me start by saying that this is a wonderful painting, and I love that you have asked us for help. It shows great character to enlist others opinions to make something better. Especially something you created. I pick "Through the Gate" and I liked Lauras' suggestion to. If you would like I think "A Quiet Place" would do well too. Just a thought.

Sue... you painted this? It is the most peaceful scene... I love it.
Serenity. Thank you for sharing it . Of the two choices, I think # 2

reply to this comment

Jerry S. Oct 8, 2007, 7:23am EDT

You need something different. The sheep are not the central focus, and the gate opens to the dirt rode, which leads to the barn. I vote against both of your choices.
It's a great image, though.

Nancy S. Oct 8, 2007, 10:55am EDT

How about ' a gate to the meadow'.

i like through the gate. when i saw this it made sense. to me, one can be going home or venturing out past the gate to see what else is out there.

Norvona J. Oct 8, 2007, 6:56pm EDT

This is a very beautiful painting, Sue. I really like it. As for a title. . . . no matter now long I look at it, the only thing that comes to mind is "Green Pastures."

reply to this comment

Ylanne Sorrows Oct 8, 2007, 9:13pm EDT

"Threshold to the Past" for symbolism and double entendres.

Need humour? Crime fiction? Poetry? It's all there at Ylanne Sorrows's namespace.

So, have you decided anything yet?

reply to this comment

veronica m. Oct 9, 2007, 5:45pm EDT

I think Through the gate!

reply to this comment

Sue C. Oct 10, 2007, 10:39am EDT

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions and votes, I have decided to go with the majority and pick Through The Gate.

reply to this comment

Laura H. Oct 10, 2007, 5:55pm EDT

Any title with a gate since that's the main focal point.
Thanks for the encouraging email :)

Faith K. Oct 11, 2007, 9:10am EDT

My vote is for "Throught the Gate". Nice painting and use of color.

reply to this comment

Barb M Oct 18, 2007, 10:38am EDT

Beautiful Picture.

You could call it "A Country Walk"
