Cowboy Trails Online Show

The Cowboy Artists of America annual online show: Cowboy Trials goes live tomorrow July 14th, 2021.

Artwork created for this show was inspired by this years’ Trail Ride at Kimberlin Ranch in Texas. This year, 12 members met at the Kimberlin Ranch in Graford, Texas. Active, emeritus, and honorary members swapped gear, shared memories, and found inspiration. Legendary chuckwagon cooks Homer Robertson and Charlie Ferguson served steak and cobbler. It was a weekend worth remembering and documenting through art.

On July 14 at noon, artwork inspired by the CA trail ride will be offered in the Cowboy Trails Sale. Funds from the artwork is split between the artists and the Joe Beeler Foundation, the membership’s nonprofit for developing artists.

This year Dustin sculpted a small piece entitled “The Runaways”. Measuring around 8”H x 12”W x 4”D, it will be a limited edition of 12, shown in clay. $1,250

“In search of greener pastures, these two hobble broke horses have decided to make a run for
it. A similar event occurred at this year’s trail ride. In the end, the runaways were caught but
not after a bit of walkin’ by some good hands.” — Dustin Payne
