Known for their toughness on the trail, Longhorn Cattle provided a source of survival for many adventurers seeking a new home in the wild, wild west. I had access to the skulls of these magnificent creatures and wanted to create a portrayal to honor this stalwart legend of our past. The strong colors and textures of the abstract background become an arena for his likeness to float above, providing a mystical vision of this legend of El Dorado, "The Golden".

Featured exclusively through "Fine Art at the Forge", an invitation-only event held in Bozeman MT in early October. Contact us for more information.

Oil & metallics on 3 - 20" x 20" x 1.5" cradled panel, creating a triptych when hung. Sides are of sealed raw wood for a modern floating style.
