Hello and welcome fans and fellow artists. I have my newest art release today.

I call this piece “The Ropes”. Inspired by the cowboy theme of the rodeo. I originally created this piece for the Grand National Art Show and Sale. This piece was suppose to be the work I was going to finish during a live demonstration of my drawing skills there at the show. As it turned out I did not have to do a live demonstration due to the lack of space and coordination of the show. 

However, I finished this work in my hotel room in San Francisco California. I am pretty happy with how well it came out. I had it matted in a light grey double matt.

I have to admit I was worried that it would get damaged on the trip to and from California but it survived just perfect.  I used graphite pencils in different dark ranges to render the details. Then I branded the horse with my initials.

It is ready to for some lucky person to purchase it and take it home. Thank you for taking the time to stop and read.  You can check out this work in my gallery on my web site. JodiBauter.com
