Red Stallion with Guillimot, Swirling Rain Clouds in the Sky

This drawing was made early in the summer after returning home from a week long road trip to Northern Arizona. It had just rained, so the morning sky was filled with the remaining rain clouds from the storm that had just passed. Little spinning drops of rain were falling across the desert from these clouds. Guillimonts are Atlantic ocean birds with red feet. I like to include them on the backs of horses in this series: When It Rains in the Desert. I enjoy juxtaposing images that are not likely to be seen together anywhere on the earth. It creates a little jump in one's consciousness Surprise! Surprise! Imagine that!!! My passion as an artist is to bring joy and wonder into people’s lives.
