My First Rodeo

Husband Bill and I took a weekend trip to Tombstone, Arizona. Well, I wasn't much impressed with Tombstone but the scenery on the trip there was A-W-E-S-O-M-E. Knocked me out. Talk about inspiration!


These were taken south of Rodeo. So quiet. So unspoiled. So beautiful.
A-W-E-S-O-M-E
The fresh colors,  the sounds of nothin but birds and a gentle wind, it was just too too much. The layers of blues in those distant mountains...the waving grasses, the variety of greens. Very compelling and an open invitation to PAINT!

So last week I "did" a demonstration for an El Paso arts group, and I drew on all that gorgeousness to produce a just so-so collage. This one will be coming around again...
