The horse, the horse, the horse is on fire!

Here's my latest contribution in the Tea Towel Tour - there isn't a theme for the towel, but I figured I'd add a man since there were two girls on it, going for a cowboy theme. He's riding a black steed with silver hooves and a mane and tail that is on fire! (using red, orange and yellow thread). He's doing a bit of a rodeo to show off for the girls - who are showing off for him!
Here's the whole towel:
