Description
This oil painting of a cowboy taking a break in the hot afternoon sun. The old outhouse is without a roof but an old umbrella is doing the job of both shading the cowboy and his horse. The horses reins lead through the cracked open door of the outhouse where the cowboy is. The foreground is painted burnt umber, yellow, blue, burnt, green and tan. The path leading to the privy is well worn. The door of the building is weathered and cracks between the boards can be seen. The remainder of the roof is what's holding the outhouse together. An old quarter horse is holding his head in the shade of the umbrella. The background is painted in dark shades of brown, green, yellow, blue and white. A thick fence row keeps the viewer from seeing beyond the clearing where this scene is taking place.

Wonderful painting, whimsical subject - I relate well as a trail rider to the sometimes challenges of holding on to your horse while using "the facilities", whether an outhouse or a convenient heavy branch to perch on! Hahahahahaha! Even had traveling TP in my saddle bags for long rides! L/F
