The Taunt
by Frank C. McCarthy
In his long and storied career, Frank McCarthy earned renown for many
things—his attention to detail, his insistence on historical accuracy,
his first-rate storytelling ability—but none were more celebrated than
his eye for design. “The Dean of Western Action,” as he came to be
known, brought from his early days as a commercial illustrator an
understanding of visual design that makes his action-packed paintings
the finest of their type.
In The Taunt, a band of Plains warriors
races across the prairie with their opponents in hot pursuit. The
frenetic action of the story is made infinitely more exciting by
McCarthy’s compelling design, which leads the viewer’s eye through the
painting like a hawk tracking a hare. Any serious collector of Western
art cannot consider their collection complete if it does not contain a
McCarthy, who is truly an original American master!

Buffalo in Storm
by James Bama
Ask James Bama why he went into Western art and he will tell you quite
plainly: he didn’t. “Norman
Rockwell lived in New England and so he painted small town scenes and
harbors. I happen to live out West, so I paint the Indians, ranchers
and landscapes I see.” Bama’s portraits of today’s denizens of the West
are thoroughly modern, but their occupations, dress and spirit echo
those of their predecessors centuries ago.
More than any other animal, the buffalo embodies the rugged tenacity
required to survive on the frontier.The day Bama encountered this
buffalo, the snow was fourteen inches deep and the animal’s coat and
hooves were crusted with ice, but still the animal ventured on.This
evocative winter scene follows in the footsteps of the immensely
successful Chuck Wagon in the Snow, Old Saddle in the Snow and Old Sod House.
