“Another
Loop” The traditional method of “breaking” wild
horses was a tough and dangerous job for man and horse. This painting
is just one of many in my western art and wildlife art category
online at www.donvernongallery.com, which also features native american
art as well as lots of cowboy art.
Here a wrangler puts another
loop on a wild mustang in an effort to control him long enough to
put on a brand and start the process of domestication. I created
this painting, measuring 23” X 23” with acrylics on
canvas and added a custom barn wood frame. The surface is textured,
accenting the loose brushwork, which adds to the frenzied action.
Western art is a great American tradition and covers a wide variety
of subject matter that I explore, including native American art,
wildlife art of all kinds and cowboy art.
