Hill Country Paint

West of San Antonio, the Texas Hill Country skips and spreads. Over those mountains and hills, bluebonnets come in the spring.  Goats, sheep, deer, cows, and occasional buffalo dot the hills. More and more, exotic deer, lavender, and grapes join the customary peach and pecan orchards.



The Frio, Comal, and Guadalupe Rivers run through the hills. All these features beckon travelers. 
I get many requests for river paintings. 





I have an unusual request for a buffalo painting.  

I have a less-usual request for a painting of the traditional Gardner Park Dance. So, here's the beginnings!  




Some parts of the Hill Country are dusty and desert-like, scattered with prickly pear and scrubby vegetation.  It's all wildly beautiful.
