Wooden Indian - Americana old western town
My latest watercolor:
It's an old statue - wooden Indian, in the Western town of Jacksonville, Oregon. This town is used a lot for old western movies, so this probably has been photographed or filmed many hundreds of times.

Texas Landscape Painting with Live Oak Trees and Bluebonnets
I finally got around to making some prints. I found a printer, not too far away, that makes really pretty prints on Futura 100 lb semi-gloss paper. I love them! I decided to start with my favorite landscape, that I painted years ago. The colors on the prints are even brighter and stronger than the colors on the original painting!
