IF - Dusty

In the dusty recesses of my mind an archetypal cowboy lives gleaned from childhood experiences of The Rifleman Man, BB guns and Grandpa’s cowboy hat. This cowboy is a strong individualist, a loner, who lives by a cowboy code and walks, every night, into the sunset.

REALLY NICE Bill!
His deepest dreams seem painful, and gives him pause. Nicely organized textures as well.

This piece is awesome! I'm always a sucker for some watercolor with pen and ink and your style works so well in this form! Great work!
