Two Lonesome Pine Ranch Hand

20”X20”

Original Painting, Oil on Canvas

This is another of my paintings of my Navajo friend Nolan Ryan. Riding one of his broke horses on the ranch, I liked the idea that it seemed like such a hot day the horse was over it and was just glad it had a chance to stop and relax. This was one of the first times I began to study the desert flora, and in particular the chamisa in New Mexico.
