Yesterday, Deena and Mike came back from Coyote Ranch at about three and the girls went out for one more walk, along with a little guy who trailed along:
Weston and the Women Walkers
Got home late last night and got up this morning to work on my next book project, which prominently will feature this guy:
Al Sieber In Buckskin (I dig those leather pants with the prickly pear leggings)
Worked on several sketches from this:
Al Sieber scratchboard
I also revisited another photograph of Sieber taken at Camp Verde:
A blow-up of a group photo of Apache scouts and Al Sieber.
Here are some sketches done from that view:
Daily Whipouts: Al Sieber Chief of Scouts, April 11, 2012
And from these, here is an extrapolated version of Sieber:
Daily Whipout: Al Sieber With Rifle, August 2007
Of course, it was Sieber who famously said of Mickey Free:
"He's half Mexican, half Irish and all son of a bitch."
