Study, The Rolling Hills of Marfa

Study, The Rolling Hills of Marfa, 8x10, study, palette knife, oil on panel, $450, framed,  landscape
There is a ranch road just west of Marfa. You can take it straight to the border, or close to it. You actually have to go a few extra miles east to Presidio to make a legal crossing. The only problem is that it isn't paved and a 4x4 is a must. Luckily the new paint mobile has all of those bases covered. It is in the top 5 of drives I have ever taken. The scenery is unadulterated and WILD! During the 4 hour, 54 mile drive was saw only one other vehicle and that was pretty shocking. We did part of the drive again before we left.
