WEST OF THE MOON

"This is a traditional pen and ink with a border around it. It gives the romantic midnight ride the look of a classic old-time poster. I like to depict cowgirls as well as cowboys and romance in the West. Using traditional ink work also gives it an old-time flavor. It could be contemporary, but it is also a bit timeless. "The whole point is to create an era, a nostalgia, so the image can take the viewer back to memories of a simpler time. I think it gives the piece appeal. I'm leaning toward this certain approach and taking a certain path with my prints. They combine Western fine art with a decorative style. I want them to look good in a home. I want to help in creating a pleasant atmosphere."
