Painting out at Superstition Mountain today on a trail that we hiked a bit in. A bunch of hikers and these two riders passed us. I couldn't help throwing a horse into my view, but it looks like this one would have posed for us!

Well they are a moving target, but it was surely fun
to paint studies of horses.


The riders come locally on Sunday mornings,
tie up their horse and have coffee together, having
riden together earlier.

The owners of these horses came out
and rode off before I could get the pinto in.
