Contemporary American Artists

American Contemporary Cowboy: Brave providers and fearless protectors, they were also tender balladeers. Fearless, clear-eyed and high minded. Dresses in hand made clothing, depending upon the horses they rode, the leather trappings and camp gear they fashioned and the food they cooked. America continues to evolve in the freedom of its creative imagination, which should bring us to enjoy being the best we can be.


Spring in the Taos Valley

Arnold Vail was my cherished friend, a wonderful artist and a beloved teacher to thousands. He conducted painting seminars of special interest on locations such as rural Wisconsin, the mountains of Northern New Mexico and the Texas Hill Country. He shared his wonderful wit and humor... and his faith. He gave every good thing he had in his art. One may find bible verses, recipes, or warm greetings or declarations scribbled on the back of his art. He simultaneously drew four true to life characters from live models using charcoal in the fingers of each hand and the toes of each foot. His works hang in private collections and in museums including the Vatican. This charming landscape was a favorite setting for Arnie's Classes
