Seymour Wanted to Be A Cowboy

Seymour had wanted to be a cowboy even before he had heard of Kid Rock. But he loved the Blues, too. After torturing himself on picking a life path, he put on his 10-gallon hat & decided to be both. He changed his name to Tex, wrangled cattle on horseback, and played the blues circuit like his idol, Albert King, at night. Let's just say he was very lucky with the ladies (oh, and in fulfilling his life, too.)

By the way, I cut out the word "Blues" and the little stars under the handkerchief from strips that were used to wrap up a Hatch Show Print poster that I bought from that famous Letterpress printer a couple of years ago.  Here's a link to their website and if you're in Nashville, make sure you go visit them!

Although She Loved Her Cowboy... (Marshmallow Teeth)

Although she loved her cowboy, all his campfire s'mores were turning her teeth into marshmallows.

Ah, ha, ha!  I spent a long time on this one with all it's little details.  It was worth it though...it cracks me up even when I look at it! 

Now of course, I have to include something from the king...

Elvis, "Burning Love"

Day 215. He Was A Slow-Talking Cowboy (SOLD)

This painting was inspired by my facebook friend, Conversationally Crafty.  One day in June she posted this beauty:

"He was a slow-talking cowboy in a Taco Bell uniform

who told me my order was made with love and joy."

Oh!  I loved it so.  She gave me permission to use and illustrate it.  I added the little "saucy" exchange between the pretty patron and charismatic cowboy. (-;

Conversationally Crafty, in her own words says, "I tend to be a bit poetic at times.  I write a lot of business-related copy, articles, etc."  She comes up with some wonderfully insightful posts.  Thank you, CC.  You are a beautiful writer. (-:
