After painting like mad, and finally shipping off the paintings for my Keene, NH show, I took the day off and went on a hike and run through some territory we haven't explored yet. It was real pretty country.. the range cattle are back, and the new calves are everywhere. I just thought you might like to see them - running and jumping as babies do.
At the very end of the short video, Momma cow calls one of the calves back.. the black angus calf that turns back and answers her... soooo precious.
And, then, there was the angry rock....
and just for "art content" here are a few sketches I did while waiting at the Dr.'s office...
it was from some sport magazine.. which figures, since it was the physical therapy office.... I hate just "waiting". Sketching with a pen mean no erasing! Good practice for careful observation and measuring....
I have a week of out of town plein air painting planned for next week. I will be without access to the computer (gasp!!)
so won't be updating till I return, but hopefully will have some new paintings to show for it!
So I usually bring a sketchbook with me...

Sigh, this makes me so homesick for New Mexico. My mom always called the calves, "Blossoms". Course then they were mostly herefords with the white ears popping up! Thanks for sharing, have a good time on your plein air trip.
