Westerns
Brad Dexter
Back for one more of The Magnificent Seven before I put the markers away for another week. Number two in the collection is Brad Dexter who played...
James Coburn
Back to the markers and it's time to start on a new series of portraits. I've done a series of chess players and a series of quantum physicists....
Henry Fonda, Once Upon A Time In The West

Hondo

Unforgiven
23 May 2018 This is based on an establishing shot in Unforgiven, a Clint Eastwood Western from 1992. I've got a lot of Westerns in my DVD...
