Daniel Blagg
Contemporary American Oil Painting with Big Tex, Cowboy, and Texas State Fair

2021

About the Item

'Loose Cows,' 2021 by Daniel Blagg. Oil on canvas. 55 x 42." $19,000. Contemporary American Oil Painting with Big Tex, Cowboy, and Texas State Fair. Nothing screams "Texas" like the Texas State Fair and the sight of Big Tex looming in the distance. Daniel Blagg, a Texas native represented by Artspace111 in Fort Worth Texas, knows exactly what Cowboy Culture is, and precisely how to represent that in his vast amount of Texas Landscapes, and American Realist paintings. This oil on canvas, a fairly large painting is perfect for the Cowboy in your life. Whether that cowboy is yourself, your grandfather, son, or even twice removed cousin, this fantastic image represents the cowboy in us all. A well-known figure of the contemporary Fort Worth art scene, Daniel Blagg has worked in the DFW area for over four decades. Blagg creates compositions that are both large-scale and intimate, familiar and unfamiliar, through his realistic style and chosen subject matter. Inspired by the surroundings of his studio warehouse on the outskirts of Fort Worth, his paintings of deteriorating road signs, empty streets, and vacant buildings examine urban decay and the byproducts of American capitalism. Blagg is interested in portraying what society discards; what once was useful is now abandoned and left to rot with no thought of recycling or re-use. According to Blagg, this wastefulness is particularly evident in American culture, where advertising is driven by the constant and even desperate desire to make a profit, without regard for the ramifications of this model of economic enterprise.
