About the Item

American Cowboy Diner Painting by British Contemporary Artist in Black & White, by British Contemporary Artist, Angela Wakefield. This is No.14 of her Americana Series, which features American Diners, Food Courts, Truck Stops, Gas Stations, Still Life and all aspects of “Americana”. Art measures 24 x 12 inches Frame measures 28 x 16 inches In this black and white painting by Angela Wakefield the central focus is an American Cowboy seated at the counter of a nostalgic Diner. The individual is positioned with their back to the viewer, creating an air of anonymity and allowing the viewer to imagine their own story. The cowboy is portrayed wearing a wide rimmed hat and a weathered, shirt, symbolizing his rugged lifestyle. He sits on a tall bar stool, his elbows resting on the counter, as he gazes at the scene before him. The artist skilfully captures the cowboy's posture, conveying a sense of contemplation or perhaps weariness after a long day on the range. Behind the counter, a clock hangs on the wall, displaying the time as 9:07. The specific time of day, whether morning or evening, is left to the viewer's interpretation, adding an element of intrigue. The clock's hands tick steadily, emphasising the passage of time and the steady rhythm of the diner. Adjacent to the counter, a coffee machine stands proudly, exuding a comforting aroma. The machine emits a gentle hiss of steam as it brews fresh coffee, creating a sense of warmth and comfort in the air. The cowboy’s cup may be resting on the counter, their preferred beverage fueling their journey. The walls of the diner are cladded with rustic wood, enhancing the nostalgic atmosphere. A few picture frames hang on the walls, capturing moments frozen in time. These frames may contain photographs of landscapes, trucks, or horses, evoking a sense of the cowboy's shared history and experiences. Above the counter, a wooden shelf holds various diner memorabilia. It showcases classic items such as an old set of weighing scales, a large tin jug, bottles, vintage cans, and other small items related to the diner's theme. These objects add to the ambiance, telling stories of the past and creating a unique character for the diner. To the left of the counter, a door stands, hinting at the possibility of entry or exit. The door may lead to the kitchen, or perhaps even a storeroom. Its presence adds an element of movement and anticipation to the scene, suggesting the constant ebb and flow of customers and staff. The black and white color scheme accentuates the contrasts and textures in the painting, emphasizing the timeless qualities of the diner and its occupants. The interplay of light and shadow creates depth and atmosphere, enhancing the overall mood of the artwork. In this monochrome Angela Wakefield captures a quiet moment in a familiar setting. The viewer is invited to imagine the untold stories and the connection between the individual and their surroundings, evoking a sense of nostalgia, camaraderie, and the timeless allure of the open road. Angela Wakefield has twice been on the front cover of ‘Art of England’ and featured in ARTnews, attracting international attention and critical acclaim with her urban landscape paintings of New York, London & the North of England. The style of painting has been described as ‘contemporary realism’, and is often favourably compared with Edward Hopper by collectors and art critics. Angela’s work is held in private collections in Europe and the USA, including the British Royal Family. Her admirers include leading figures in international business, filmmaking and the media.
