Show Your Artwork in Our December Issue. Plan your marketing around these specially focused features.


The American cowboy is one of the most iconic subjects in American history, and it’s a subject we celebrate in the December issue of Western Art Collector. So grab your boots and your hat as we return with the 16th annual Art of the Cowboy! This issue honors cowboys as depicted in works by many of the top artists working today. This feature will continue to showcase new works from both painters and sculptors as they bring one of the great icons of American history to life in paint and bronze. Featured will be nostalgic scenes of the Wild West, as well as images that evoke the daily life of the cowboy. Don’t miss this chance to show our readers your artwork depicting this timeless figure.
