Mules: All about Ears

15x22 watercolor on 140 lb cold press Arches rough paper of mother mule, a hinney, and young one.  The background is imaginary and I used two different photos of mine to come up with the composition.  The mother is plodding along in the hot southwestern sun while her offspring, called a jenny, looks at the viewer.  My paper choice lent itself to the stucco buildings and sandy dry dirt.
