Vaquero

Cropped Image from one of my larger watercolors

Years ago I created a watercolor on a full-size sheet of paper depicting the Fort Worth cattle drive that occurs twice a day in the stockyards. I awoke this morning with an idea about cropping out a vaquero in the composition to see if I could create a decent piece with just him in the shot against a Southwest backdrop.

Beginnings of a 5 x 7″ watercolor study

If I can pull off a decent 5 x 7″ study of this, then I’ll move up to an 8 x 10″ painting in hopes of creating something presentable in a frame.

Thanks for reading.
