Cow Skull

15x11 watercolor on Kilimanjaro 140 lb cold press paper of an old cowskull I photographed on my brother's ranch in O'Donnell, TX. It was propped against a tree and had rocks below and beside it. Daniel Smith paints used: Quinacridone burnt orange, quin gold and magenta, raw sienna, UB, aureolin, and Carbazole violet, all done wet on dry. Yesterday I drew it and today painted it. These icons of western art always sell pretty quickly.
