Where are you rolling to Sheila? Well, our time in the great West is coming to a close, it's getting warmer by the day and the desert is not where I want to be during the summer months.
The Start
The Finish

Today I will be painting trying to get a portrait finished before we leave since the next few days are us getting the coach ready to leave on Wednesday. We have or stops planned out and we will call ahead so we can get spots. Everyone right now will be travelling East after spending their winter in California and Arizona and I'm envisioning a stream of Coaches, Fifth Wheels and Travel Trailers nose to butt going across the country.
What I'm Working On Today
It's a portrait of Princess, a small sweet 'ol girl I met at Black Meadow Landing in California this winter. Still have a ways to go.
Other Random Stuff
I did a small montage of pieces that have recently sold. My hope is that I can drop doing portraits for awhile and concentrate on work I want to do. Yes, the funds do come in from the portraits but I have found a fun niche in my rodeo series and Wild Burro watercolors and they are selling so more of those. I also want to capture in paint what we have experienced while traveling this winter.
POWERFUL being my word.. I finished three pieces the other day then sat down and started a fourth before dinner.
My art Muse was moving me and I "knew" it would sell and sure enough, it did that night.
Going through a drawing pad that I had hidden away I found this drawing. My sweet Muse Sophie, now my Spirit Muse.
And Finally..
The Blue Moon over the Huachuca Mountains on our last Friday night.
And the sunset..
What an adventure....
Warmly,
Sheila
