"GEE and HAW"

Watercolor - 6" x 8" on Arches Paper
There comes a time in the birth of a painting that I call the point of no return. It is either going to "make it" or flop. I was almost there on this one and was about to chunk it to the art gods. So I put it aside and when coming back to it...a new-found enthusiasm polished it off with a touch of whimsy and vehement brush-work.
Gee and Haw are commands taught to driving-horses or mules.
Gee means turn right and Haw, the left.
