POPulist ART by a True Western Cow-Artist!

Howdy, Pardners! Y'know, th' Wild West has ever symbolized th' spirit of th' ruff 'n' ready American Cow-Artist. With holstered brushes, tubes o' acrylic, like bullets in his big-buckled belt, 'n' wearing his "Chaps Cologne," the Cow-Artist "quick draws" visions o' self-reliance, th' great outdoors 'n' punchin' dawggies.

Why, once-t I sawr "Ranger Rik" punch ah Pit Bull Dawggy. Now he paints visions o' th' cow-artist's life usin' his left hand...

Rik originally hails from Kansas and was raised up 50 miles from Dodge City's Boot Hill, Sheriff Matt Dillon and Marshals Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson. His first jobs were on a ranch and farms, but he soon learnt that writin' and paintin' was a whole lot less exhaustin' then farmin' 'n' ranchin'...

He nows lives less then'a dozen miles from Pioneer Town, where a lot of those great old movie and TV westerns were shot, and a coupl'a hours from the gunfight reinactments of Calico Ghost Town.
