It's a ways from being finished, but thank you. :) If you wanna hear "jingle, jangle, jingle"... come on down... we have plenty of that goin' on around here. :D

I don't even bother closing the front door all the way shut till the latch clicks, much less locking it... I know I have company when I hear a boot kick and someone yells "Highway Patrol!" (my little brother and whomever happens to be with him,) lol... or... the wind blows through the house and then I hear the jingle jangle clomping on my floor. It's pretty much open house around here all the time. :)

Country girls are fun. I'm here in Tennessee now!

This is really interesting as unfinished. The areas that are closer to finished, seem to really pop out at you, while the other parts seem to melt into the rest of the picture.

....if that makes any sense.

haha.. sounds like fun! well who knows.. .i'm gonna get me some real nice boots so i can 'jingle, jangle' too.. :) so see you soon!

Well, then you should KNOW...!! Tennessee girls are the closest to Texas girls you'll get without "getting next to a TEXAS GIRL" lol
(thanks Gig and Ingrid)

Gretchen Wilson sings it best, I think: (might as well fill the whole picture text up with redneck lyrics, huh? :)

I ain't never had a problem with California
There's a lot of good women from Sacramento to Corona
But them Hollywood types after a while wearon ya
Struttin' around in their size zeros
Skinny little girls no meat on their bones
Never even heard of George Jones

Ain't you glad we ain't all California girls
Ain't you glad there's still a few of us left
That know how to rock your world
Ain't afraid to eat fried chicken and dirty dance to Merle
Ain't you glad we ain't all California girls

There ain't nothing wrong with plastic surgery
Well Dolly Parton never looked so good to me
Everybody ought to be exactly who they want to be
But that Paris Hilton Gets under my skin
With her big fake smile and and her painted on tan
She'd never have a chance at a real man

Aint you glad we ain't all California girls
Ain't you glad there's still a few of us left
That know how to rock your world
Ain't afraid to eat fried chicken and dirty dance to Merle
Ain't you glad we ain't all California girls

Ain't you glad we ain't all California girls.

dayum! awesome textures and colors Cindy! whoa! makes me wanna see the rest of him...lol terrific!!

haha... I have a photo of the "rest of him" on my couch... it's a loooooooong photo... he's very tall, and topped off with a big grin and red hair (well, the hair is under his cowboy hat, but... :) He's a doll. (thank you)

Looks pretty cool so far. the details in the leather are awesome. Should be a tight piece.

See, now that's just the encouragement I needed to get busy and finish it. Thank you. :)

I think I enjoy the pictures you paint of your mind and life with these comments as much as I do the pictures themselves..you're the Queen of leather mizz Cindy

I finally finished a piece I started last year, so I'll give that bubble butt a push to have you finish this piece. Really looking good sweeting.

Thank you very much... thanks to all of you that commented. Guess I should get my bubble butt in here and finish this thing.

Your work always leaves me catching my breath and sitting in awe!!! The textures here are sooooo realistic!!! Excellent work!!!

Thank you, I used the halftone tool on part of the jeans and for the engravings on the spurs I just used a one pixel brush.

Amazing : ) <33!

That is awesome work, you got the textures perfect.

It's this line he says when he tips his hat to you, "Lookin' gorgeous Ma'am, as always", that makes me want to meet a tall charming cowboy. Seems to me the only chivalry left in the world comes from good ol boy Cow Pokes.

This is just..... everybody said it for me, the leather and jeans and wood and metal. You do em well Miss C, you do em well. :)

i wish that shadow was better. Shadow Aside you Rock the South with this picture it is great but allready know this.

Thanks... Gotta watch out for sweet-talkin' cowboys, though, they can be ever so dangerous. :)

@ JK-Arts: It's cuz her monitor is darker than ours.

I love these pics you do. You got all the elements down so well... that metal, leather, jean, wood etc :D

Oh my god... just... Wow. o.o

Awesome work! really like the subject matter, different.

oh Cindy...where are thou? Such greatness, and your sweet face are missed here!
