Open Range

We were driving in the Chiricahua Mountains a few miles from where we've spent the past few weeks. We spotted a small herd of Shorthorn cattle grazing in the woods along the road near the tiny burg of Paradise Arizona. This bull caught my eye and my camera caught his! I painted 'Open Range' as a gift for someone dear to me; maybe I'll get to visit this macho toro once in a while . . .

Another piece from New Mexico

Recently finished this little trapezoid-shaped watercolor of 'Windmill #2', City of Rocks State Park New Mexico.  This was our view from our trailer, way down the road.  The windmill is actually down the slope behind the behemoth boulders, so there's a drop-off to the background.
