Last Go—'Round

This image of the Last go around at the roping at the barn, the end of the day, and it is almost done.

Last Go—'Round - marking pen and acrylic on canvas, 12" x 16", $400, Giclee prints and cards.

The last 45 minutes of the branding at Porter's Ranch, Arroyo Grande. I draw fast and paint in color notes - as they do the "last go-round" of roping calves to be branded. It looks like a cartoon, but it has the flavor of the day. The weathered red-wood barn in California; the busy activity getting the job done right - soon it will be delicious lunch time.
