This professionally framed original pastel depicting a scene from a working ranch in the Davis Mountains hung in the Museum of the Big Bend, Alpine, TX. It premiered as part of the annual invitational custom western gear and fine art show Trappings of Texas, in which Lindy Severns took Best of Show for Art, 2007.
 
Impressionistic Southwest pastelist Lindy Severns uses archival materials; as with all Lindy's pastels, this painting will retain its true vivid colors for centuries.

"Working cattle is a dusty, noisy, worrisome undertaking" Severns says. "At times, the whole process seems chaotic and futile. Then, miraculously, all the critters are where they should be. The cowboys have a minute to savor the cool morning air before the real work commences. The cattle are calm, the dust, settled. This painting shows such a moment. I was especially interested in the colorful old saddle blanket, and in the intricate pattern of shadows the fence created on this historic ranch in Jeff Davis County. How many times has such a morning happened here..."
