Blue Rain Gallery gets new work from Doug West
Now available at Blue Rain Gallery in Santa Fe, New Mexico, are several new pieces from Southwest modernist Doug West. One of the new works is Remembering the Flow & You, showing a union of plants, land and sky. “The Southwest is my rich pallet for creative inspiration. Time spent out on the land is where I feel most grounded. Watching the sky’s changing light, with heroic cloud forms overhead…these feed my artist’s eye,” West says. “I love that the land here is exposed and wide open to long distant horizons. New Mexico resonates deeply with my spirit as an artist. I am most interested in capturing what speaks of the expanse and the connection that ties us to this place in a timeless, memorable way.”Make inquiries on this work at www.blueraingallery.com.

Brad Overton brings a fresh look to the Old West, in paint and bronze
Salt Lake City-based artist Brad Overton is now offering a new collection of work at Altamira Fine Art in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. The work, much of it inspired by Pop Art and other cultural touchstones related to Western art, is part of a show titled Big Guns, running from June 10 to 24. Works include his iconic toy cowboy and Indian figures, a Western pop gun and two new bronzes. One of the bronzes is Deathsperado, showing a pistol-wielding cowboy figure with an arrow stuck in his thigh. Overton’s clever work pushes the boundaries of Western art and parody, all while exploring what the iconic figures represent to modern-day audiences.See more at www.altamiraart.com. —
