CODY ART SHOW the First Annual Pony Express Paint Out

Some photos I took at our first Pony Express Paint Out. This was done at the Boot Skoot'n Boogie in front of the Irma Hotel. There were 10 of us that worked on the painting. My photo of the painting is terrible. We want to get it professionally photographed. We were all pretty pleased with it for doing it in a hurry. It was sold by Silent Auction and I will post the high bidder as soon as I can notify him.

Oil Painting of the Big Horn Basin

Thats right, an oil painting. Something rare for me but this was done on location at the Ost Ranch a few years back. I entered it in a show about the Big Horn Basin and it was accepted and will hang for awhile at Northwest College in Powell, WY. It will be taken there Oct 5 for the show. It is titled Basen Oasis and is 16x20 on masonite.
