" I Haul Bulls For A Livin' "

11 x 14
oil on stretched canvas

Love going to the farmer's market in small towns! Early Sunday morning in Monteagle, Tn. is the best time to find great character studies. This was the most charming gentleman who seemed thrilled to find out that we were from Texas and proceeded to tell me how he hauled bulls between all the rodeos in our area. Never really thought about how those bulls moved around...now I know!
