Terwiliger:

Really nice. I like the way the glove stands out--maybe like you're tipping your hat to a strong work ethic.

GarandFan:

Wonder if this portends what will later be called "John Cox's Blue Period"? :o)

Very nice shading effects in there as well.

Cowboy:

My kind of guy!

HEY T

I thought I could get across a realistic, maybe a tad romantic, idea of a working rancher.

HEY G

I've worked alot in monochromes. I thought showing a dusky blue early evening was a good start for this idea.

It is true....there was a short time where I just did these blue compostions. I'll try to post them later on.

Allen:

Always attentive...

The carpentry that went into the bench I'm sitting on.

The livestock I'm watching.

But, in the house is my family.

That too will draw my devotion.

Though I might rest, I am never too tired.

Marvelous piece John.
