Hillcountry Inspiration




There is an area around Kingsland that the river changes everytime I am there. It is always beautiful and I find a great deal of inspiration. Each time I am there I think of the feeling I had as a child on horseback. I rode the same places everyday, in Tulsa, OK, known as Green Country. Each time I would turn the bend in this one area that I called the woods I saw it differently. I think that was the development of what I have heard referred to as "Artist Eyes" The next thing I think is how grateful I am to my parents. I would not have had this freedom if my Mom had not allowed it and I spent this much time on horseback because my Dad is my Cowboy Hero. OK I'll try to refrain from childhood nostalgia. I hope you enjoy the painting. I sure enjoyed painting it. It is for sale.
