We've been doing a lot of exploring here in our new state of Montana. We love to hike so we're looking for that, plus potential spots to camp and for me to paint. On a recent explore we bumped into these guys. They were very friendly, and came right up to the fence to say hi. They even followed us along until we came to this little creek, and then took the opportunity to have a snack. So I snapped a million pictures (with my phone, which is all I had), and someday I WILL do a bigger version. Oh, and on that same day we saw a moose! I love this state!

Pre-posted while I'm off painting in the Sierra's. I won't be able to ship anything until (at the latest) August 25th.

These aren't cows! I have shied away from painting horses my whole life because they have such specific proportions and I've been told by "experts" that it's tough to get it right. But screw it! I have a deep affection for these horses as I visit them almost every year in Germany. So I decided to just give it a go. And they look like horses to me.

This is my last pre-post. Today I should have hiked back down the mountain with my group, and will be visiting a friend for a few days in Pleasanton before I head back home with my report. Stay tuned!
