Originally published in 2012. Here’s a busted up Buckaroo who I just finished this morning. From the looks of him Happy Hour down at the Gold Nugget Saloon didn’t end too well by the looks of the fat lip, the cracked skull and the swelling shiner, not to mention the shot up hat. I was…

I might be a little man in a big world but on our 30 acres I'm the one in charge when the wife's not around!
Horses for Sale!
Here’s one of my most popular carvings. I can’t remember just how many of these I’ve made over the years but I do know that as soon as they’re finished they’ve left the Gallery to a new home. Comments welcome.
“Where’s The Beef?” A Painting Tutorial
While updating photos I came across this video series which explains and show my painting technics. It’s an 8 part series and here is the first segment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEuvls35FW4&t=14s&ab_channel=LynnO.Doughty
The Sheriff
Wow! Now here’s a surprise. I found this photo in the “Sherlock Holmes” folder! I did this one back in the 70’s. I’ve always wondered where the photos of that piece disappeared to. It was probably the of the first scene I ever created. Sure wish I had taken more photos of it. Note the…
Red Horse
Here’s what I’m working on at the moment. This one stands about 15″ tall on the base so he’ll be a real eye catcher when he’s finished. Still have to add the feathers to the shield and maybe a totem above the horse. Hopefully, there will be scalp locks hanging from his shoulders as soon as we…
Sorry Boys! It’s Beans Again!
Originally published in 2011 Whittled the shovel this morning to finish the major parts of this scene. Still have to make some biscuits to go into the Dutch oven then it’s off to the paint table. I gave him a water bucket to put something in that right hand. He can use it to douse…
Checkin’ Her Out!
Originally published in 2011. I can’t say whether he’s looking at the 4 legged filly in the round pen or the 2 legged one setting on the fence. Whichever, by the look on his face I think he approves of what he sees! For a while I had my doubts about the paint job on…
Buffalo Soldier
Originally published in 2011. Well, here he is. I think you’ll agree that this turned out to be a pretty impressive piece, at least I hope you do. It sure has seemed a long and involved one with lots of hurdles to jump but I think we did okay. There are a few things that…
Man of the Mountains
Originally published in 2011 Here’s the latest. Started painting him this afternoon and I think he’s going to be a real winner. Dressed in a Racoon hat and a red capote made from a Hudson Bay trade blanket and smoking a clay pipe. Large too…around 14″ with the walnut base. I really like working in…
White Eagle
Originally published in 2012 Here’s a new bust I’ve been working on while the paints drying on Iron Eagle. I like doing this little busts as they are certainly easier than a full figure but the best thing is that they sell quite quickly. This one turned out really nice. The contrasting colors and texture…
