Charreada in San Antonio. After taking over 300 pictures that day of active performing horses, and riders, I thought I had several nice shots to work with for future paintings. The image I took for this painting, "After The Charreada", is the very last picture from that day. The Charro was riding his calm Palomino along the path leading to the exit of the rodeo grounds. The afternoon sun was coming through the trees and highlighted the horse's mane and just the edges of the horse's body and the relaxed Charro. His eyes gazed at the crowds leaving the stadium. He seemed to be pondering about his performance while watching his friends and family walking towards the exit. Hope you enjoy it!
