Description: This painting depicts cowboy legends Roy Rogers and Dale Evans. Dale stands behind a seated Roy with her hands on his shoulders. Her golden short hair is styled up in a wavy coiffure, and she has blue eyes, thin brown eyebrows, red lips, and a warm smile. She wears pearl drop earrings, an off-white collared blouse, a brown patterned vest and a little brown bow tie around her neck with ribbons hanging down. Her thin hands rest gracefully on Roy's shoulders, displaying her long red nails and a ring on each ring finger. Roy wears a deep purple suit with a small pink rose boutonniere on his lapel. A bolo tie portraying the head of a brown horse rests beneath the collar of his white dress shirt with two thin gray cords stretching down. He wears a bright white cowboy hat, and his grayish white hair peeks out by his ears. Both Roy and Dale have friendly relaxed smiles, and the background polishes off the portrait with a dark blue sky and white clouds.
