To find an armadillo all we have to do is look out the back door after dark. The armadillo has become a popular animal in Texas in spite of his good looks. Some interesting armadillo trivia is that an armadillo can go underwater like a submarine and walk on the bottom or float like a cork to cross a stream and they always give birth to four babies of the same sex!

Natures equivalent to a Drive By Shooting! A couple of years ago a Tornado barely missed our house, touched down near our barn, uprooted three trees and then skipped along for about a mile before it disappeared in the clouds!

(Written in 1981)Last fall as I watched from my front porch this "Blue Norther" rolled across the horizon, by nightfall the temperature had dropped almost fifty degrees and winter had arrived. Although the farm scene in not the view from my front porch, it certainly was more interesting to paint.

This house is in reality just a few blocks from my house in Austin. The house had fallen into disrepair but was purchased and is being restored by Gene and Patsy Tankersly. The house has always reminded me of a Classic Early Texas Farmhouse so I indulged in a little fantasy when I created this painting!

HEB Grocery, "a Texas Icon" has a fleet of Fishing Boats painted with Texas Flags and I couldn't resist doing a Painting with that theme. I was in a duck Blind near Port Aransas one foggy morning and watched the Shrimp Boats heading out with their entourage of Seagulls!

This title is the result of my annual Contest to name one of my prints. We had a long drought in 1995 and as a result the spring wildflowers were hard to find. I decided to compensate for the drought by painting as many wildflowers as I could. This is mostly from my imagination but the Rock House is at Alexander, Texas and is the same one I used in my print "House of Brown Rocks".
