I decided to invent a neon painting. The concept: a cowboy on a bucking horse, swangin’ his Indiana Jones style whip, atop electric grass, with the mighty Tetons far off in the distance… my result? “The Neon Cowboy” — not to be confused with “The Electric Horseman“.
On Friday, I had the pleasure of joining Jackson Hole’s finest for Leadercast 2016. Hosted by Silicon Couloir at the National Museum of Wildlife Art, I spent my afternoon painting the Leader.
Manhattan inspiration found me once again… And, so, before I move to Idaho — I’d like to share my depiction of The World Famous Apollo Theater.
