Beloved Valley, Farm Dye on Silk Painting, Western Art Landscape

2007

About the Item

Beloved Valley by Nancy Dunlop Cawdrey Dye on Silk 18" x 23" 31" x 36" (framed) Nancy Dunlop Cawdrey lives in a world of color. And she likes to paint that way as well. Growing up quite literally around the world, Cawdrey found early inspiration in patterns and colors from places she has lived as a child and teenager, ranging anywhere from Syria to Germany. Studying studio art in Paris for two years as a college student, Nancy became attuned to Old Master techniques and found her voice through painting. After living for some years abroad in England and Europe with her husband Steve, eventually they found themselves returning to the United States and settling down in Montana. Nancy discovered the medium of silk painting also on her travels, this time, in Hawaii. The propensity for vibrancy in the dyes and the looseness of the technique, close to the techniques of watercolor, captured Nancy. While a fairly novel medium, combining the subject matter of the west and the ancient art of silk painting, she has created a portfolio and style of painting that is wholly unique to her studio. In Northwestern Montana, glacial streams seep from the craggy peaks of Glacier, spiraling through great wide plains of Eastern Montana and the Dakotas, and eventually spill out into both the Pacific Ocean and the Missouri River. With these waters carving out the dramatic landscape of the Northern Rockies, Montana is a muse to any artist. Nancy finds inspiration from everywhere in the landscape. Bright red poppies and native flora fill her canvases just as much as wilder characters such as bears, moose, and mountain goats. Her silk paintings have become just as much of a fixture of the American Western. Nancy Dunlop Cawdrey is a signature member of the Montana Watercolor Society, an Associate Member of the National Watercolor Society, American Watercolor Society, and Northwest Watercolor Society. She is also a regular at invitational shows such as the C.M. Russell museum, the Settlers West Miniature Show, the Buffalo Bill Art Show, and the National Wildlife Museum in Jackson, Wyoming. Nancy also is a member of the C.M. Russell Skull Society, one of three female members.

  • I Came to Where the Lone Pilgrim Lay, River Landscape Oil on Canvas, Western Art
    By Michael Ome Untiedt
    Located in Whitefish, MT
    I Came to Where the Lone Pilgrim Lay by Michael Ome Untiedt Oil on Canvas, 36" x 48", 43" x 55" (framed), hanging hardware included. From the artist: "In Memory of Tom Horn: This is another of my feeble attempts to break down, to rage against the tyranny of time. I have fought this battle for a half century, yet my limbs grow slower, my hair more moon-bleached. I ponder as I apply brush strokes to the canvas, what thoughts pass through the viewer of this work a hundred years hence, two hundred years later? Will they know what I carry in my heart today? Am I on a great mandala of life, and will I return one day to this same experience, or am I adrift on a great "river" flowing endlessly through the Cosmos, heeding shoal water and seeking shoreline that is forever changing? A dear friend passed this week from the plague scourging our fair land. When and where will I hear his sweet self deprecating laughter again?" Born and raised in rural southeastern Colorado, Michael Ome Untiedt maintains a studio in Denver. Traveling extensively, he is known as a painter of the world who sees with a westerner’s eye. Through the color, brush strokes, and symbolic subject matter of his paintings, he attempts to examine the human predicament and its connections to the landscape and history of the American West. He is driven to portray twenty-first-century psychology on a nineteenth-century saddle! Untiedt has participated in numerous shows including the Western Masters Art Show and Sale, Settler’s West Miniatures Show and Art of the American West...
