I did a series of paintings of Texas Rangers. This was the first, and my son Joshua was my model. Later, I asked him to grow a handlebar mustache, which he did. His girlfriend at the time (now his wife, Alexis) hated it. I told him when it would curl on the end I would do the painting. It took several weeks of course, and he began to call me daily asking "can you please do the painting, Dad"? Eventually, I got to it, and he shaved the next day. It's hard being an artist's son.
