Almost There - original oil figurative rodeo painting of barrel racer
This 7 x 5" painting on Gessobord was done from a sketch that I did at a rodeo. The drawing is mostly squiggles that only I can understand - my own little shorthand - and is so much easier for me to work from than a photo. Every time I've tried to take an "action" shot, it's the second after the main event. Not much of a photographer am I. Hence, my drawings are my favorites to provide the basis for my paintings. Thanks so much for stopping by! Sold

Ace xx. The concentration of the rider and the movement of the horse has been captured wonderfully.
