Now that the commissions are almost all finished, I can return to some of the larger paintings that I began last summer. I have an exhibition coming in January 2022. This will be the first time for me in a gallery for quite awhile, so I want to have some real knock-your-socks-off paintings for the show.
Remember the cowboy painting back in October? (Probably not – why would you?)
It got this far and then the commissions started coming in.
Saddle up, Cowgirl! (The light is so different at different times of day, different times of the year, different methods of photography.)
These guys, their horses and the dog are quite challenging with nothing but blurry photos. I should be used to this by now.
The cowboys are looking better but someone probably needs to call a veterinarian for that poor canine.
Better now. Jackson is certainly curious. (That is his pink nose in the sunshine behind the painting.)The edges need paint, and it needs a signature, but I will let it dry and think about it for awhile yet before deciding if it is truly completed.

Is this a commission?
Happy New Year, Dan! It is not a commission but a piece toward a show that I have scheduled a year from now.
I really like this and Jackson’s nose.
Rosemary, Jackson’s nose was a bonus, indeed!
