I first met Mindy 4 years ago on the Sutton ranch.  They rescued her many years ago and because she is part of their family she acts more like a dog than a donkey.   When I paint on this ranch she always finds me.  She leans against me while I paint and when she is in a funny mood she tries to eat my easel, steal my paints and has even dragged my gear for more attention.   I always take a lot of pictures of her as her antics are so darn cute.  When I saw the image of her with the shadow on her back I knew it would be ideal and fitting of our relationship.  Me and my shadow Mindy.
