Can you think of a good name for this Painting? Were having a contest to name it and will decide on the winner in August. No rules, enter as many times as you wish, we just want a good title! The winner will receive a Framed Artist Proof as their prize. I found this church somewhere between Lake Jackson and Columbus several years ago and it's been at the back of my mind as a Painting Subject for years. I decided to add the Bluebonnets In anticipation of what will surely be a great wildflower show this spring!

Basket Flowers are some of my favorites, easily mistaken for thistles, but take another look, they don’t have stickers, the flowers are about twice as large and the fragrance is very sweet. Basket Flowers line the Highways and Pastures of central Texas from May to July and sometimes form huge colonies.

Wild Turkeys are very abundant in Central Texas but if you go looking for them you will probably be disappointed. However if you are only looking for "a nice tree" to paint you might just stumble on to a flock of Wild Turkeys. Observe quickly because they won't say put for long!

This title is the result of my annual contest to name one of my Paintings. This scene was inspired out at our Ranch by the Longhorn Drinking at the Edge of our Stock Tank and I added the others and cleaned up the background a little!

This painting was inspired right out my back door here at the Ranch after one of our Spring Storms. I made up everything else in this picture except the sky!

This Title is the result of my 2009 Contest to Name this Painting and the winning title was submitted by Carolyn Barnett of Wimberly, Texas! I found this grove of live oaks just off of State Highway 123 north of Czestochowa, Texas complete with the Cattle which I changed to White Faced Herefords for more visibility. I added the Bluebonnets, Cactus and little red roofed house!

I was driving down the highway when I happened to glance to the side and see a couple of farmers on their modern tractors talking over the fence. I thought this had some potential so I recomposed the scene using a couple of antique tractors that I saw at the Hamilton Antique Tractor Pull. For those of you who arent into Antique Tractors the Rivalry between the fans of John Deere (Green Tractor) and Farmall (Red Tractor) is sometimes quite intense. So if these two guys with their extreme differences of opinion can be friends, why can't those Muslims and Jews get along?

This painting was inspired on my annual trip to El Paso to show my work at the El Paso International Museum of Art's "Kermezaar". I was honored to have this painting published as the Poster for the 2001 show. I always stop to watch the Sunrises and Sunsets in the Desert and I guess this Cowboy and his old truck represent me and my Motorhome.

is located at 308 13th Street in Wichita Falls, Texas and I'm told they are Famous for their Ribs and a drink called the Red Draft, a mixture of Tomato Juice and Beer. The Bar-L is one of only 2 places in Texas that will bring a beer to your car due to being Grandfathered when the law changed.Judging from the design of the place it is definitely Classic 50's Style!

I was in Hico , Texas when I discovered this "59 Chevy"; which was undoubtedly designed by a fan of "Batman"; then a few miles down the road near Fairy, I found this barn. I thought the Chevy ought to be in the barn and I made the barn red because I was going to include this painting in my 1992 Battered Barns Calendar and I figured that a Barn Calendar should have at least one Red Barn!

is the most frequent thing I hear when folks are looking at this Painting. I had just photographed the Old Dance Hall at Garfield, Texas and decided to take a shortcut back to the main road and found this delightful tree lined lane.

BEL AIR MOTEL - is in Austin, Texas on South Congress Ave. South Congress was the main drag and the entry way to Austin from San Antonio before interstate 35 was built and there were many Grand Motels and Restaurants there to greet Weary Travelers. The Bel Air is still in Business and I thought it would be cool to fill the parking area with Chevy Bel Airs!

This is my third used car lot painting and after selling out the prints of the other two I went a few years and really missed having a car lot picture to show. Finally the idea for this painting hit me and this is the result. The portrait of the Big Texan on the building is a portrait from memory of the man who sold me my first used car in 1959.

This Hackberry Tree is out in our yard and has been a host to lots of birds like this Yellow Shafted Flicker, (a medium sized woodpecker) who dine on bugs that hide in its Bark!

CACTUS INN- is on Historic Route 66 in the Texas Panhandle Town of McLean. I drove every inch of old Route 66 in Texas and this is the only Classic Motel that hasn't either been modernized to the point of not looking old or is not in ruins, The big tall Cactus is a real eye catcher!

The Caravan Inn is in Arlington, Texas at 908 East Division Street. Division Street is part of the Old Fort Worth to Dallas Highway and this lots of Memories dot this stretch of road. There is another Caravan Inn in Fort Worth but this one just screamed 1950's! I combined the signs from both Fort Worth and Arlington in this painting.

CATALINA MOTEL - is on East Hughes Street in Wichita Falls which prior to the new Freeway was the Grand entry to Wichita Falls from Dallas and Fort Worth and was lined with Fancy Restaurants and Motels to greet Weary Travelers. Today the Catalina is the only one still operating and I thought some Pontiac Catalinas out front would be really Cool!
