Southwestern Afternoon

22x15 watercolor on Langton Prestige 140 lb cold press paper by Daler Rowney done mid-January, a still life I set up years ago. That first version was on a full sheet 30x22 and sold at its first show in west Texas. It has always been a favorite. COPYRIGHT Kay Smith 2026

Bleached Cow Skull

12x6 watercolor on Strathmore 140 lb cold press paper started yesterday then finished today from an old bleached cow skull hanging on the wall. I liked its dramatic shadows so sketched it in a narrow format for a southwest still life. COPYRIGHT 2020 Kay Smith

Southwest Still Life

5.5x8.5 watercolor and ink line done last month for a western online challenge.  In this simple still life, a western hat sits atop a pile of hay in the old barn and a rope keeps them company.
