Tyree- this is wonderful! I love the vibrant colors

Nice job Tyree. I love the composition, the colours and the overall technique.

As long as there is light, I will paint it.

Tyree, like the watercolor look and the composition. You captured the attentive look on the horse.

You are so talented, all of you!!!!

Does anyone know why Ruidoso was named like that? Is it a noisy place?

On Wikipedia it says it was named for Rio Ruidoso that goes through town. Noisy River.

It is a fun place to visit in the mountains. Kay may know more historic tales.

I sketched in my big coffee table book with a Prismacolor 08. Just a quick sketch, no time to paint.

Jo – awesome sketch, you conveyed so much with what, deceptively, looks like simple strokes! I can never do that, I always get waaaaay too fussy when I sketch – really beautiful job

[provenceaquarelle]

Thank you, Jo.

I imagined it had to do with noisy (ruidoso means noisy in portuguese and spanish), but didn’t know about the river.:)

Tyree, this is dramatic and beautiful! I love the looseness of the forms and the rich colors. Awesome style!

Jo, I love how, with just crisp, skillful lines, you portray a whole picture, a whole story. This is wonderful!

Lovely, Tyree!
I like the sketch, Jo. Your minimal lines are spot on.

That is what Ruidoso means. The river is noisy.
I love your sketches Jo! Nice and fresh.
