Cottonwood Friends

Painted this on a fall day in the Bosque (forest) close to the Rio Grande river. This was a acequia used for providing water to the ranches in the Rio Grande valley. There was a father and his 2 children walking along the trail to go fishing on this great fall day. The cottonwood trees a towering over the trails and the fall colors were just starting to change in the trees. The Sandia mountains were in the background.
