Through The Uprights_ A giclee, 18 x 18_3 left

"Through the Uprights"__18 x 18 framed limited edition giclee, only 3 left $450
Football is in the air. My favorite team happens to be the Texas Longhorns of the University of Texas in Austin. It's a GREAT TIME to be a longhorn fan, right y'all? I have been around long enough to know that these glory days will be gone soon enough (just like the last time!) so I am enjoying the heck out of them for now! One day we will be looking back saying,"remember when?", and it will all seem so silly...it's "just a game", right?...but, having football playing sons teaches you that, though it IS a game, nothing is closer than the struggles of real life than the sport of FOOTBALL....my longhorn paintings all have football jargon titles. This one shows beautiful cattle egrets, backlit and flying around the "uprights" of the young steer, I could ramble on and on about the symbolism of beauty through the uprights....but I won't. I only have three of these left. They are pretty big, at 18 x 18 and have a great black frame...let me know if you want one of the last three...first 3 to ask...
