Wild Trumpet vines grow on two sides of the porch at our ranch house and we've enjoyed watching the Black Chinned Hummingbirds as they feed on the flowers and listening to the buzz of their wings and their chattering little voices. the flowers of the Trumpet Vine provide a food source for Hummingbirds who in turn are the only means of pollination for the plant!

I found this Rock Fence somewhere in the Texas Hill country and I have forgotten where it was. I thought it would make a perfect stage for a Meadow Lark to perform his monologue.

The South Austin Central Fire Station is located at 1705 South Congress Avenue an opened in 1932. This Station is typical of the Era's style of designing the station to blend with the style of the Neighborhood.

This barn is north of Hillsboro, Texas and has probably been painted by every Artist I know. The migrating Redwing Blackbirds made me think I had stumbled into an Alfred Hitchcock Movie!

The Pioneer Theater, built in 1945 is in downtown Falfurias, Texas and I thought "Viva Zapata" would be appropriate since it was filmed in South Texas in 1951 and was Anthony Quinn's first major role. Recognize anyone in the cars?

I found these wagon wheels leaning on a Fence near the old Rock House at the Anchor X Ranch west of Lampassas, Texas and wondered about the stories they could tell if they were able!

NAME THIS PAINTING WINNING TITLE!
"SPIRIT OF TEXAS"
Congratulations to Leslie Petty of Cranfils Gap,
Texas for her winning title! She will recieve a Framed Artist Proof of the Painting as her prize! We will have another Name the Painting contest in 2015! I got this idea from a windmill tank near Hamilton, Texas. I used a different windmill and tank than the one near Hamilton. That's a Mockingbird in the sky to the right of the windmill. I thought Prickly pear cactus and Bluebonnetts were appropriate.

I was out feeding my cattle one splendid morning and looked to the east to see this marvelous sunrise. I wanted to feature the sunrise so I simplified the landscape that what was really there.

This Spring I found our ten Longhorns resting beneath our favorite Oak grove and this painting is the result. I wouldn't be surprised if Cattle inspired the custom of Siesta because these guys always lay down at mid afternoon for a little nap. I added the little house in the background to give this picture some depth!

Spring is such a great time to be alive, the grays and browns of winter give way to vibrant green and an explosion of multi-colored wildflowers blanket the terrain.

These Longhorn Steers lived out at our place, the tree is at Round Top and I made up the rest of the Painting! All of our Longhorns have passed away from old age and I was organizing some of my photographs and got inspired!

Any statement about Texas would be incomplete without the spring wildflowers. Although Bluebonnets are undoubtedly the most frequently painted subject by Texas Artists, I can't resist their beauty and am also compelled to fall under their spell.
Available for purchase:
There’s no way I would do a Texas Wildflower Calendar and not include Bluebonnets and Indian Paintbrush. The Bluebonnet, Being the Official State Flower of Texas, grows only in Texas although relatives live elsewhere. The Indian Paintbrush is a semi-parasite and taps its roots into neighboring plants to steal a little food, and it likes Bluebonnets as much as most Texans do!
Available for purchase:
Any statement about Texas would be incomplete if it didn't include the over 5,000 different kinds of wildflowers of which the Bluebonnet is the most famous. Bluebonnets, like barns and windmills always seem to inspire me!
Available for purchase:
In August this is usually wishful thinking, but every now and then we get a little afternoon shower to help settle the dust. These flowers are Golden Crownbeard, more commonly known as “Cowpen Daisies”.

This is the Old Rock Church at Norse, Texas, between Clifton and Cranfills Gap. I liked the flow of the road and landscape from the backside so I just turned the church around to show its front side. I'll bet you can't do that with your automatic camera!

A Few Years back, as I was driving near Fredericksburg, I got a glimpse of a white Horse standing in a field of Bluebonnets. I liked the ides but my mind drifted away and I forgot all about it. Recently while driving I saw a brown horse standing in a field without Bluebonnets and it triggered my memory of the white horse and I didn't forget this time!

Stanley's Barbecue opened in 1958 and is located at 525 S. Beckham Ave. in Tyler, Texas. Stanley's is Tyler's oldest Barbecue Restaurant!

Like a line from the song "Deep in the Heart of Texas", the night sky in rural Texas can be a wonder for those living in urban areas. Many times, while traveling at night, I've stopped and marveled at the millions of stars!
