Woven Blanket

This is the second blanket that I have woven on a loom that I made.  It is 54" by 24".  It took me almost 6 months to complete.

Half-way complete.

Hollywood Western Movie Poster




This is the first in a series of movie poster art.  Tom is a good friend who owns a ranch in New Mexico.  Miss Pearl was his loyal dog.  I substituted his name for the real star of the movie, Tom Mix.  Below is the partially completed picture.  At the bottom is the model I used for the painting.
