This painting was based on photographs I took at the 2007 and 2008 Chuckwagon Cook-off held in San Gabriel Park, Georgetown. It is being recreated as a banner for this year’s Chisholm Trail celebration. Afterwards, the banner will be on permanent display in the new East View High School, Georgetown, Texas. Note: The original painting is currently available. Please contact me regarding prints.
This painting was done from a picture of my daughter as we left the 2008 Red Poppy Festival in Georgetown, Texas. She was carrying a red balloon and was forlorn about going home, because of the wonderful time our family had together. The landscape is of our southern fenceline in Schulenburg. Cotton-candy clouds appear often in that area. The two images seemed like a perfect match. It is an honor that others agreed and are using this artwork for their advertising campaign.
This is a sketch of my daughter picking strawberries at a farm near Taylor, Texas. Our little family of three managed to pick 21 pounds of strawberries! Needless to say, we are still eating delicious freezer jam.
This sketch of my daughter was done on a blustery (and cold) day by our pool in Schulenburg, Texas.
I sketched this picture of my daughter walking to the car after the 2008 Red Poppy Festival in Georgetown, Texas. After much frivolity (and cotton candy), her mood became somber when it was time to leave.
