Just add goats

I'm working on a painting designed to take me to the Hill Country of Texas.  Picture April, before it's so stinking hot that you want to sit in the AC and never venture out.  The bluebonnets are parading around like Southern bells aware of their charm.  Even goats look endearing in all that vivid blue! 

I've barely painted in their outlines, but I'll be adding horns, highlights, the whole works. 

And I have a request for buffalo. So behold the buffalo taking shape!  

Spring Bluebonnets

This painting was easy and lots of fun. As usual, I agonized over the cow. Or steer, since it has horns. Obviously, I wasn't raised on a ranch but in the hills of Pennsylvania. I find myself delighted with all the bragging rights inherent in Texas, and enchanted with the scenery.
