Description
"Even Cowgirls Get the Blues" (Golden Light), is a soulful self-portrait by Nikki Smith.
With soft, dramatic, golden light, this monotone version of my original painting brings focus to the guitar and the gentle play of light and shadow in a soulful moment. I am one with the music...
This artwork was inspired by the Emmylou Harris, Dolly Parton and Linda Ronstadt song of the same name:
"Even cowgirls get the blues sometimes
Bound together, what to do sometimes
Get this feelin' like the restless wind
The only way she's ever been"
Song writer: Sonny Curtis
Dolly parton is a national treasure with all she has done to promote childhood literacy, education, health, research and advocacy!
This song has also been recorded by Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings. A song with the same name was originally recorded by La Costa (written by Rodney Crowell). They both speak to me.
