TRANQUIL SETTING
PAINTING SIZE: 18x24
Pastel
Every time I paint the desert I can’t help thinking about Bobby. His idea of enjoying the desert was zipping down the highway toward Tucson, doing 75, “Old Blue Eyes” crooning a tune, with the air conditioning humming right along. Too bad he never took the time to stop and enjoy the tranquil settings that the desert has to offer. Oh well, at least he’s listening to Frank!
