"Llano Estacado"___a topo map...the smooth part is the High Plains. See the rim on the right side? It is an amazing drive up the side of the escarpment, and looking back. The photo below is the escarpment in the distance.
High Rise on the Plains....You can't miss these great buildings...you can see them coming from miles away! A contrast of verticals against the broad horizontal space.
*e-mail me *My web site *My Painting a Day *Last Year on the Farm - 365 works * Texas Country Reporter - Last Year on the Farm A way of life is Passing. Small farms and the rural American lifestyle are becoming rare in our time. This blog documents my travels and observations with "drive-by" paintings created while riding through America's Great Plains.
I am creating an exhibit of original oil paintings depicting this in a way no one has done before : on the move, while PASSING the Great Plains. I am painting the passing of a way of life.
The exhibit will be introduced in October, 2011 at the Great Plains Art Museum, and Center for Great Plains Studies at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln. Please join me as I blog my progress.
