Content & Subject

Forever Ride is a rare, signed, and numbered limited edition lithograph by P. Buckley Moss, belonging to the Two Girl Collection. The work captures the timeless joy of childhood through the simple yet meaningful act of swinging. Two young girls, dressed in Moss’s characteristic folk-style attire, share a swing in front of a charming farmhouse.

The title, Forever Ride, beautifully suggests both the carefree spirit of childhood play and the enduring bond between sisters or close friends.

Style & Technique

Moss’s folk-art aesthetic shines through here, with soft pink and warm pastel tones dominating the composition. The elongated figures are graceful and stylized, placed against a peaceful homestead setting. The simplicity of the swing, paired with the sturdiness of the home, emphasizes the balance between fleeting childhood joy and lasting family roots.

The curved, vignette-style framing gives the work a sense of intimacy, almost like a cherished memory preserved in time.

The mood is nostalgic, tender, and joyful. Moss conveys the innocence of girlhood and the beauty of shared companionship. The swing becomes more than just play—it symbolizes freedom, imagination, and the bonds that last a lifetime.

Forever Ride reflects Moss’s frequent inspiration from family, rural heritage, and the enduring ties between siblings and friends.
