This is another that I completed recently, done on black scratchboard with an x-acto knife only, 11X14. Your comments are welcome, hope you enjoy this one also.

What do you charge for work like this and have you thought of doing a Team Roping picture?  I would be very interested in that and some repo's of personal pictures I have.

wolfwoman, thank you, nice to hear from you. I've been busy this spring and summer, I'll drop you an email in the next day or two, if I'm not out hunting, I haven't forgot about you.

Terri, thank you very much.

Becky, thank you and thanks for stopping by to check out my work.

JW, thank you. I know what you mean about the horse not looking down the rope, bothered me for a while also. Hope to do a barrel racer sometime down in the near future, haven't thought about doing a team roper board. I'm asking $450 for this one, it all depends on the size and complexity of the work. Send me a PM and let's talk, I'm sure that we can work something out.

countryviews daughter, thank you very much.

Nina, thank you very much, I have to be carefull how I show these for that exact reason, people think that they are photos, especially if they can't get up real close enough to see the scratch lines.

James, thank you for your comments and for taking the time to view my work.

bonhed, didn't realize you were still around there, and thank you for your comments.

I knew ya hadn't you told me this was your busy time, as it is for me too. It's just starting to wind down with not a very good summer past us so far Sad  Oh well, such is the price of gas!  Shocked  Let me know when you're ready to chat again, winter will soon be upon us!
