"At the Rodeo Dance" - mixed media figurative painting

western, country, dancers, two-step, mixed media painting
I glimpsed this couple as they danced by and drew what I remembered of them when I got back to my studio.  The surface is 8 x 6" Gessobord.   I first applied oil paint, then added a bit of Caran d'Ache Neocolor 1 and ended with a Koh-i-Noor Hardtmuth Triograph pencil #6 for a few more lines.  I love this pencil - my first encounter with it - with these fat leads and thick cedar triangular casings they're very easy to use.  These pencils are tough to find, so maybe they're not being stocked any longer, but I got mine from Ebay.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
