I posted this painting last fall, but I thought I would show it again now, as it is going to be in the C.M. Russell Auction on Friday night, March 20. It will be Lot #122. (I will also be showing in Room 176 at the Heritage Inn during the show.)

I enjoyed this endeavor as the subject is my husband, Tom Gilleon – Mr. Tipi – who has been known to stroll in at the last minute with his auction pieces. I had fun with this as it’s the only way I could get away with painting a Gilleon tipi! So tip your hat to the ol’ codger. Today is his birthday!
