“Rocky
Mountain Goats”
Jan Pulley
Acrylic
Rocky Mountain Goats is a commission from my dear friend
Cindy Higginbotham who loves Colorado and loves "all creatures great
and small". She loves the indigenous wildlife in her new home environment
of the Rocky Mountains and wanted the pleasure of seeing them in her
new home in Granby.
