Fort Bridger Rendezvous

These portraits are going to be a new series called "Off the Shelf."

Ha ha.

I started these images at least a CENTURY ago, when I met these men

up at the Fort Bridger Rendezvous.

They don't look a day over that!! tee hee

I was into creating a lot of texture in the verdaccio underpainting back then.

That makes it kind of hard to change (unless I sandblast them!!).

Soooooo, I'll just go with the flow. Get them off the dusty old shelf, finish them up 

and move on to the new paintings that I'm dying to get started.
