About the Item
The cowboy has been portrayed in American culture as a masculine ideal and a symbol of individualism for decades. John Wayne, the Marlboro Man and Clint Eastwood embodied and helped to solidify the cowboy-as-rugged-individualist icon. Like many men of his generation, Thetford's father fully internalized the cowboy image. He lived in south Texas during his early adulthood, at which time he became a literal manifestation of it, trading regular shoes for cowboy boots, and a cap for a cowboy hat. Later, because he wanted a cowboy son to complete the picture, he dressed him in full cowboy regalia.
"For years, I would try to distance myself not only from all things cowboy, but from all things southern and country; in short, I rejected that which most clearly defined my father, and that which my father so heartily embraced. Knowing this, it should not have surprised me when I started to create my western series. Back home in my studio, I enjoyed retrofitting the cowboy in (very un-cowboylike) clothes and colors, until he emerged as something more interesting, quirky and colorful than his iconic self had been. It is always tempting to me, in examining both the personal and the universal influences on my work, to bring my ideas to resolution." - Daryl Thetford
