Not For Sale
Every year in Todos Santos, we have had at least one rodeo. The vaqueros & escaramuza women ride their horses through the town, head for the stadium and put on a performance that will keep you on your toes and wanting more. This vaquero was showing everyone his talent with a lasso. Over his head, just above the ground, off to the side, jumping through it. I managed to catch some great photos and finally decided it was time to paint this guy. Gosh, I loved painting this. So much motion and character.

My paintings are created through my senses, my whole being coming together to capture on canvas the inner significance of the subject that just has to be painted. Diane holds Canadian and Mexican citizenship and splits her time between Calgary, Alberta and San Jose del Cabo, BCS, Mexico.
