Surfin' Rodeo by Mitzi Easley

Surfin' Rodeo by Mitzi Easley
11x14, oil on panel, nfs
Texas cowboys don't just ride horses. I spied these last summer on the Port Aransas beach and knew immediately I would love painting their gesture, reflections, and yes, those hats.

    Love this painting for so many reasons, one reason is for 2 special little swipes of paint: love that highlight on the calf (cowboy with the shirt) and the light on his shoulder, 2 very sweet spots. Also, love the way we can feel and hear the movement of these 2 on the water's edge, very nice.
