About the Artist:
Richard Luce was born in Yonkers, New York in 1950, and has dedicated over 30 years to capturing the history of the American West. After earning a degree in commercial art from Dutchess Community College, he began as an assistant art director in Manhattan but spent his evenings developing his artistic style.
His deep admiration for the American West, particularly inspired by Frederic Remington's work, led him to focus on Western subjects. He started selling his art in the early 1970s through the Douglas Gallery in Stamford, Connecticut, and the support of his growing following encouraged him to pursue art full-time.
Luce's firsthand exploration of the West, including extensive hiking and nature observation, lends authenticity to his work, with collectors noting the ability of his paintings to evoke sensations such as the feeling of cold snow or the texture of stone. His true excellence shines in his portrayal of American Indians, reflecting their dignity and strength, achieved through extensive research, reading, and even camping in primitive gear to understand their way of life. Richard Luce's art stands as a testament to his enthusiasm, love for painting, and deep connection to the West.

- "A Santa Fe Ranch" Western Scene with Cowboys Horses Sunrise Landscape Cows HerdBy Xiang ZhangLocated in Austin, TXA luminous, impressionistic oil on canvas painting by Xiang Zhang depicting cowboys on horseback working a herd of cattle at sunrise. The painting measures 30 x 40 inches. It is beautifully framed and ready to hang. The frame measures 41 x 50.75 inches. About the Artist: Xiang Zhang was born in China in 1954 and developed his artistic passion in the midst of China's Cultural Revolution. His father recognized his talent and nurtured it, providing him with an art tutor, access to National Geographic magazines, and anatomy studies using bones from locked-up science labs. Zhang's formal training in set design at the Central Academy of Drama in Beijing, with an emphasis on oil painting, combined with exposure to Russian masters and Western influences, laid the foundation for his distinctive style. A scholarship led him to Tulane University, where he honed his skills and immersed himself in New Orleans' vibrant arts scene. It was in Texas that Zhang discovered his calling in painting cowboys, spending time on ranches to understand their lives intimately. His art captures the essence of ranching life, from small single cowboy portraits...Category
