Follow the Leader Horse

9x12 watercolor on Langton 140 lb cold press paper finished today.  These three pintos were one of many horses featured on WetCanvas in the Southwest/Western forum and ref courtesy Maria in Dallas.  In the photo ( I used a black & white copy) the sky was virtually pale and clear, so I added a thunderstorm and clouds.  Maybe this will make it rain.

Donkeys sketch

5x8 ink sketch using Tombow brush pens, black and grey, on white index stock paper.  From this work I'll develop a painting in watercolor showing the donkeys' local colors, the fence and background.

Three Cows - a daily painting

Another daily painting from my trip this week of three lovely cows going off together, done in watercolor, 5x7 on hot press Fabriano paper and Winsor Newton travel kit paints.  So many of these animals have had a very bad year with the continous drought here in Texas.  Pray for rain!
