Completed as a commission, this painting is done in the manner of my Texas tailgate series with the early '50's style pick-up parked in front of the old Montague County jail. Though no longer used to house prisoners, it has become a meeting facility for various groups in the county. The walls are painted with murals by local artists to preserve some of the county's history. It was also the original meeting place for the founding of the Chisholm Trail Art Association in January 2007 and remained so until our group outgrew the meeting space. If you have a special place or event that you'd like to commemorate, I could paint one of my tailgate series for you complete with personalized license plate and whatever else you wish to tell your special story.
