Artist on BOARD

A different sort of thing for me.....very vintage, and cropped because it was part of a larger irrelevant area.

Hi BigDub,
Wow! I remember those coffee pots from my childhood. They were usually blue and speckled white. When you said Artist on Board, you weren't kidding.
The thing that's amazing to me is that it's just paint on a flat surface but in the right hands, its art. -

Haha. You think? Well, that was a pot, and I did it.
I had a bit of a cowboy/western thing going on for a while.
I love the western art and the stories of the west.
The west has a particular light and color you’ll never see in New Jersey. Fortunately I am able to see and experience it first hand. -
On another thread it is asked how many countries are represented on this site.
Similarly, here are the countries of folks who have liked and visited my FaceBook art page.
USA, Australia, Austria, Republic Of the Congo, Germany, United Kingdom, Gambia, South Korea, Norway, and New Zealand -
This was certainly a challenge and I re worked it after several years because I didn't like the awkwardness of the cows. Now I am happy with it, though.

@J-Jericho
That's utterly fantastic. Is that cow playing a Martin Committee? -
@Dr-Mark I'm sure that when herd, it's udderly mooving.

I am so glad you all are taking my art so seriously. But, really, don’t be so stuffy. Have a little fun with it. But don’t milk it to death.

Okay, you make a mooving point! Please forgive my silliness. To err is human, to forgive is bovine!!

You think Cows have a problem by not having fingers! Cows never had fingers, but Steers are in real trouble. They are missing the parts that turned into Rocky Mountain Oysters. Now that is not being silly. It is a real issue if you are a steer or ox. No Bull!!! (Any more)

You, however, have a lot of Cajones, though
We have a set list. We practice the eventual list plus a few extras. Sometimes good tunes get cut, but the week of a performance, the list is set and there are no audibles for extraneous tunes. We've played one encore since I've been there. There are two folders, practice and performance. Only the performance folder attends the concert. I feel sorry for you having to lug all that music around. I used to play in a church band that did that. 500 charts and any song could be called up at any time. We played 8 different tunes on any given Sunday. I took my file "bucket" home to practice the tough songs (the ones George Rawlins recorded!!) and lo and behold an audible was called. The other trumpet player wouldn't let me look on his music, he turned it away!
Anyway, The conductor isn't going to change, none of them do, so maybe a little cart for your horns and file "folder". This is what I used for years and it is still in good shape!
I’ll message my shipping address. Can you get it to me by tomorrow?
