Thread: snoey river horseman

I like the cutout because I expect to see the valley forest below.
Since you have a strong drawing, and now some experience and hindsight, do another one.

Thank you RV, I most likely will try another, although next time I will try and get the spelling right in the title, as my grandson pointed out . " Gee grand-dad that bloke is from "CANADA", this goes world wide, SO now the whole world, knows YOU CAN"T SPELL!" CD.

I have learned how to spell 'snowy.' As in: 'snowy everything, all day.'
I live in a little village of maybe 475 tucked away in the Canadian Rockies.
Peaks around the village 7,000 - 9,000 feet. On the east side of my house,
you have to sit down to see the tops.

Winter is my wood carving season.
I'll do some stone carving outdoors and look after my grapes in the summer.

In my Uni days (LaTrobe/PhD), I spent a lot of my spare time up on the Bogong High Plains.
Walked as far in the winter as the Cleve Cole Hut. Did I spele that right?

have taken off the larger bit on the right hand side, and the background is fixed for strength has section cut out to get at the batteriesCD.

The diamond shape is so he is raceing down the mountain side after "REGRET's" colt and the rest of the mob, with it on the flat he is just another horseman cracking a whip,I positioned the drawing wrong when I traced it on to the piece of timber
what do you think about the back ground, use the transparentcy like Ive got or just the plain one? thank you for your comments CD.
