The Cowgirl by Suzy 'Pal' Powell

This was painted from one of the photos I took back in April,

at our neighbor's branding.  This cowgirl is 14 and she was working

as hard as the men. roping and flanking the calves. I was impressed with

her knowledge! Her little sister was working along side her notching ears.

It is a long time family tradition and I was so excited to get to be there and

watch and photo.
