A dog seems to have an internal clock to tell him important things, like when to wait for the school bus and greet the children. This road is in the Texas Panhandle near Pampa and the dog lives in Austin and knows just when to wait for my wife and I to pet him as we take our daily walk!

This is Clyde, our Golden Retriever who stops and waits for us to catch up when we go on our morning walk. This scene is from the north side of our ranch looking toward our house. This is my second painting to feature a Golden Retriever, the first one was Waiting for the Bus that I painted in 1982!

Actually it's hard to get the Blues when you are looking at the Texas Hill Country in full bloom. If you get the Blues in April, I prescribe a large dose of Texas Bluebonnets and you will find the cure!

This was inspired at Inks Lake State Park where the Deer will come right up to your car looking for a handout and they don't even offer to "work for food" This Buck looks like he may be watching out for any rivals that may want to lure his Ladies away!

I never tire of watching a great sunset and Texas seems to consistently have some of the better ones. As the sun sets on 1996, we all wish y'all a great year in 1997 and every other year to come!

Cedar Waxwings; named for the red waxy tips on their secondary feathers; are elegant little birds that migrate thru Texas twice a year in huge flocks they stop frequently to feed and gather on anything that will hold enough birds for a social gathering!
Available for purchase:
These Goldenrod break into bloom every fall at about the same time that the Migrating Ducks arrive to winter on one of our three stock tanks. The Purple Flowers are Gayfeathers and are usually starting to decline as the Goldenrods are starting to bloom.

When a Thunderstorm rolls across the West Texas desert it seems to have more grandeur than anywhere else. That's probably because you can see for such great distances and can watch the drama as it builds up on the horizon.

I always marvel at the change as I drive from the lush green hills of Austin to the West Texas desert. The early morning light in West Texas ignites the terrain and exposes a rugged beauty and an abundance of life that is always an inspiration to me. This scene is of the Franklin Mountains near El Paso!
Available for purchase:
This is a view of the Davis Mountains as seen from the north between Kent and Balmorea and is a view I've stopped many times to enjoy. Actually the dirt road in this picture follows the contour of IH-10 and I added the cowboy, horse, gate and windmill.
Available for purchase:
The Westerner Motel is at 1201 West 2nd in Odessa, Texas and looks to be in pretty good shape. I couldn't resist Cowboying it up with Pickups, Horse Trailers and the like!
The Westerner Motel is on the Historic Bankhead Highway!

is east of Temple on State Highway 320 and I went there because I was told about the magnificent old church (included in my 1997 calendar and my Country Church note cards) which is in the background behind the store in this painting.

This painting will be published on my 2007 Texas Classic Gas Stations Calendar. This Phillips 66 Station at 2012 25th Street in Snyder, Texas Built in the 1950's in what was then an ultra modern look reflective of the Space Age. Bill and Candace Jones are the Owners and they are still pumping Gas! Full or Self Service plus Wash, Lube, Oil Change and Tires, it's like going back in time!

Prior to the anglo settlers the great plains were host to several million Buffalo but by the beginning of this century, when conservation efforts began, there were only a few hundred left. Currently they are up to over a Quarter Million and gaining. I have always wanted to Paint Buffalo but had been unable to find a significant number to observe until recently when I had the opportunity to get into the middle of a herd of nearly 100 buffalo and observe them close up.

These two Longhorns belong to us and they are grazing near a patch of wildflowers on our ranch that had Indian Paintbrush ranging in color from yellow to violet mixed with Bluebonnets. Martha and I figured that a rainbow must have touched down on this spot!
Available for purchase:
This scene was inspired near Hillsboro, Texas where farming is a major industry. Assuming a Farmer is smart and experienced, he can probably deal with such things as insects, diseases, high costs and low profits, but if he is to have a crop at all, the weather conditions have to be right and all a farmer can do about the weather is pray!

Snow is a rare treat in Central Texas and it usually melts before you can get tired of it. This scene was across the highway from our ranch as I was leaving for an Art Show and I painted it from memory while I was at the show.

I have always wanted to get close to the Whooping Cranes and was able to this last winter, thanks to Chuck Naiser of Rockport who is normally a Fishing Guide . The Whooping Cranes were almost extinct but have made a steady comeback to over 300 birds in recent years.
