Cadillac Cowboy Watercolor Painting

I took the picture of this fine gentleman at our local restaurant one morning.   It was a candid shot I have wanted to do for about a year now.  There are a couple of things I mean to change, minor.  Like the amber straight line in the background for one.  And maybe soften the hard line under his eye but all in all, I am glad it turned out.  

Now to locate him which shouldn't be too hard.  Probably a local.  He drove off in an old Cadillac, hence the name "Cadillac Cowboy".  

Painting is 12x16.    

Location: Elk, WA 99009, USA

Here are a couple of pictures of our little ranch out here in Eastern Washington. We have horses, yup. Three of them and one mule. We call our place "The Last Chance Ranch". Our version of a geriatric retirement home for us old folks and animals! Our little Miss Ruby Ann & her partner in crime Irene, the Devil Cat. The handsome horse is " my man Dan". Hard to believe he is 22. Second two pics are the view out our dining room window. Sometimes the horses are out there grazing. Very peaceful scene. I bit the bullet..

One thing for sure, it is actually a good way to keep friends posted on what's happening in our world. I am sure they appreciate that a lot more than forwarded jokes! Looking forward to today as a friend is coming to get some...

At the end of this ride, we have to pass by a latte stand to get home. We thought we might get in line at the drive-up window?? :-) Cheryl & me. Cheryl, me, Nancy and Mike Waiting in the latte line behind a car that was probably scared one of those "beasts" was going to run over her car... or maybe she didn't even notice.. she was on the cell phone all the time we were there.!

I am in pain! I see this about one of the biggest bead shows in the US in Tucson, Arizona and I just cry because I can't go this year. My best friend is on her way down to stay in Arizona for the next three months and another friend is already there. How much fun it would be to go gem hunting out in the desert!! I here about all the lampwork artists on the LampworkEtc forum, that are going to be there and go ooohhhhh. Having been there several times already, just makes me want to go again because I had sooo much fun there. Tucson Gem, Bead and Mineral Show.
