STREET DOGS
Thea had a great idea for a show a few years ago when we had the gallery on Canyon Road. Street Dogs and Wild Buffalo. I had a lot of fun painting for that one! Dogs have long been a favorite subject, beginning with full sheet watercolors back in the eighties. I still do a lot of dog paintings, usually in my daily 6 x 6 format and in oil. Occasionally I do dogs in watercolor, still, usually as commissioned pieces. Mostly, though, the dogs I paint are those I encounter on the street, in the park, or even in people’s homes. I met Sam on the street in downtown Fort Worth, Texas.
BUCKING BULLS OF LA JARA Daily Photograph #1,656
While in La Jara, Colorado to photograph rodeo horses in the dispersal sale mentioned in yesterday’s post, I also got this shot of three rodeo bulls from the sale, as they drifted in from their pasture.

GREAT NEWS! It’s not too late to contribute to the making of BE HOME SOON!
This news came in a couple of days ago from Melissa Howden and Kickstarter:
Bowing in Gratitude
One of my backers texted me early this morning that the goal had been reached. Another sent a Facebook message – all before I saw it here with my very own eyes. 3 days to go and several people I know are still in the process…and the goal has been not only reached but surpassed.
I have said this to some of you and I will say it here again, I am truly Honored and Humbled by all of your support, and the faith you have shown by backing this project.
At this moment I am not sure what else to say. I am overwhelmed.
Because of you the film goes to the lab tomorrow and the sound designer today.
Because of you this film will see the light of day, or better a darkened theater.
With so much gratitude and love,
Melissa
