Down to Drink

Down to Drink___6x8 oil on linen panel___$190 still wet!
Our neighborhood coyote hung around here all afternoon, yesterday, it seems. You know how once you see something cool, you are always on the look-out to see it again whenever you are near the same place? So, ever since I saw the coyote a couple weeks ago (on the day my son signed a scholarship letter to play college football for the Kansas Wesleyan Univ. Coyotes!)....I have looked for the coyote in that same place ever since...yesterday he was there! In the same area, a narrow greenbelt between houses where there often is water. Yesterday there was no water, but I painted it anyway. Brushy Creek is not too far from here, so there is plenty for this guy to drink.
While I photographed, I called my son who was at home and told him to come see...that is his truck below, with one Coyote eyeing the other!

Your Coyote paintings and stories have been fun to follow. I especially like this one. I think I see a demand coming from KWU for Coyote paintings. Can't your mom paint just one more, please? Hee Hee I was just "pinged" by word verification. :0)

If one could teach the other how to hold a ball and vice versa, run with four legs, they would make the best players.

A real winner, V. Or should I say two. No, better make that three.

You do an amazing job of capturing the likeness and spirit of animals in your work!
