The Pawnee
by James Bama
James Bama has derived a great deal of joy from the
friendships he has developed with many of the Native
American subjects of his portraits. Years ago, he
discovered that on a personal level, they are often
very different from the confrontational image they
often project. For example, Wes Studi, a
full-blooded Cherokee, established an impressive
screen-acting career with his intense portrayals of
a Pawnee war-party leader in
Dances with Wolves
and as the vengeful Magua in
The Last of the Mohicans,
yet Bama found him genial and obliging. During their
visits to the Bama home, Studi and his children
often spent happy hours playing basketball with the
artist and his son. The cultural gap was bridgedas
two fathers enjoyed time with their children.

Together They Could Do so Much
by Cassandra Barney
I’ve learned that people will forget what you
said, people will forget what you did, but people
will never forget how you made them feel. —Maya
Angelou“The first time I
put on an apron,” says artist Cassandra Barney, “I
thought it created an illusion of working very hard,
which I enjoyed. I also thought it was sassy to
stomp around the kitchen in heels and my apron … but
that symbol has transformed for me into an image of
charity and hard work. It’s not necessarily about
motherhood because there are, I think, opportunities
in every season of our lives for us to give to those
around us. With this painting, I’d like to pay
tribute to those who give because they love.”

Cool Evening
by Nelson Boren

and their guardian takes a minute to enjoy the
fruits of a day’s hard work.This perfect moment is
lovingly captured by artist Nelson Boren and
beautifully reproduced on Hahnemühle German etching
paper, deckled on all sides.

Lawrence Pretended Not to Notice That a Bear
Had Become Attached to his Coattail
by James C. Christensen
“This is one of those paintings that most people can
relate to,” says James C. Christensen, “although
often for a different reason than you may expect. I
think everyone occasionally ignores problems in the
hope that they will fade away, but that’s not the
only interpretation for the image. When wildlife
painter Bonnie Marris saw this painting she cried,
‘That poor bear! This is the third guy he’s gotten
attached to this week and this isn’t even his
neighborhood! Did you ever think about that?’
“Personal experience has a major influence on
people’s interpretation of the painting’s
message.When I gave a talk to third graders about
trusting their ideas, I asked them what they thought
Lawrence …
was about. One little girl said, ‘You shouldn’t take
pets home without asking your mom.’”
This classic Christensen image, a
perennial collectors’ favorite, is now available for
the first time as a Fine Art Limited Edition Giclée
Canvas.

The Last Elephants
by Simon Combes
Years ago, Simon Combes wrote in his diary:
“‘Africa’s Elephants in Danger of Extinction!’ I was
stunned by the cataclysmic headlines in 1989. With
the elephants’ plight uppermost in my mind, I
decided to paint as large a canvas as my small
studio would accommodate. Visually, the painting
would ask the question,‘Where are the elephants
going?’ There must be uncertainty and bleakness to
symbolize the imminent tragedy. “The line of
elephants winds its way over the ridge, perhaps
traveling from a lush valley into a dry,
inhospitable environment epitomized by a tree’s
skeleton and sparse tufts of sun- bleached grass
struggling for survival in the infertile ground.
Perhaps only in such a stark wilderness can the last
of the elephants survive the predations of man.
”Twenty years later, elephants are still at risk for
extinction, but there have been some steps in the
right direction: shortly after Simon Combes read
those alarming headlines, the United States
government imposed a ban on commercial import of
elephant ivory and many other countries followed
suit.Unfortunately, the elephants are not safe as
yet and it is up to us to protect them and their
habitat.

San Francisco, April
18, 1906
by Mian Situ
Rarely does the individual collector have the
opportunity to own a museum-caliber work of art.
With San Francisco,
April 18, 1906, Mian
Situ’s chronicling of the Chinese immigrant’s place
in the expansion of the American West has hit a
high-water
mark.
At five o’clock on that April morning, the city of
San Francisco had just begun to stir from its
slumber. A mere fifteen minutes later, the entire
city was in turmoil as it shook with the force of a
massive earthquake. For days, what was left of the
city would burn.
On Sacramento Street near Chinatown, the great
disaster has driven citizens of all ethnicities and
classes from their homes and, as one, they head for
safer ground, unsure what the next few hours will
bring. This is, perhaps, the defining element of the
image, the balance between the human and emotional
character of the composition with the magnitude of
the historic
event.
Collectors with their finger on the pulse of the art
world already know that Mian Situ’s star is rising
fast. At the Autry National Center’s 2008 Masters of
the American West Fine Art Exhibition and Sale the
original painting, which had a reserve price of
$150,000, sold for $576,100. Situ was also the first
recipient of the Gene Autry Memorial Award, given in
recognition of the most outstanding presentation of
three or more works.

Hard Trails Wore Out More than Ponies
by Howard Terpning®
Few works garner more attention at the major shows
than a Howard Terpning painting. Devotion to the
subject, extraordinary brushwork and a sensitive
palette drive the thunderous acclaim.
Hard Trails Wore Out More than Ponies
brings together all these elements in a classic
Terpning work of art. The original painting won the
Thomas Moran Memorial Award for Painting at the
Autry National Center’s 2008 Masters of the American
West Fine Art Exhibition and Sale and sold for over
$1.25 million.
“Moccasins and all manner of equipment wore out
constantly when the Plains Indians were traveling,”
says Howard Terpning. “The long days were hard on
their ponies and their gear. On lengthy journeys,
they always carried awls and extra buckskin to make
repairs on their moccasins. These three Blackfoot
men have stopped to rest their horses and themselves
so that they may continue on their hard trail.”
This spectacular MasterWork™ Fine Art Limited
Edition captures both the scale and the sensitivity
of the award-winning original and is your chance to
bring home the masterful craft of Howard Terpning.

September Afternoon
at Lake O´Hara
by Curt Walters
Is it wise to introduce one of the most renowned
painters of the Grand Canyon as a Greenwich Workshop
artist with a Rocky Mountain landscape? It is if you
want to make the point that he is a landscape artist
of the first order, no matter what his subject may
be. Certainly the good folks at The Eiteljorg
Museum’s Quest for the West Art Show and Sale would
agree. Walters won both the Patrons’ Choice Award
and the Victor Higgins Award of Distinction at their
event in 2007 with
September Afternoon at Lake O’Hara.
Curt Walters is a plein air impressionist known
worldwide for his impeccable depictions of the Grand
Canyon. As early as 1997,
Art of the West
magazine heralded Walters as
the “greatest living Grand Canyon artist.” Since
then, he has expanded his award winning repertoire
to include the landscapes of Asia, Europe, South
America, Africa and the expansive beauty of North
America. Art of the West includes Walters in their
category of “Eight True Masters” noting “many
museums and collectors do not consider their
collections complete unless they include aWalters
painting.” Walters was also the recipient of the
2008 Trustees’ Purchase Award at the Masters of the
AmericanWest Exhibition and Sale at the Autry.

Intimate View
by Cindy Baron
When asked how she chooses a medium for a certain
painting, Cindy Baron’s answer is, “Nature chooses
the medium for me. I’m very blessed to see the
landscape in two mediums. When I’m on location I can
feel the movement a watercolor can provide, yet some
scenes call for the intensity and depth that only
oils can give. Some would say it’s important to
concentrate on one medium, but I believe that if you
are passionate about what you do and express it the
best you can, you can grow tremendously.”

Bella Blanca
by Diane Eugster
Artist Diane Eugster feels that in order for a
painting to work it must be successful on several
levels: design, drawing, color and emotional
content. “I’m always struggling to bring the quality
of all these elements together,” says the artist.
“When everything interacts as I want it, it’s a
great day; when it doesn’t, I consider it a
challenge to work harder.” She combines the elements
of design beautifully in
Bella Blanca,
her contribution to the Spring 2008 SmallWorks™
collection.

The Horse Tipi
by Judy Larson®
There once lived a man who was very fond of his
buckskin horse. One day the man’s horse was badly
wounded.The man daubed yellow paint on the horse’s
wounds and made a smudge of sweet grass, then sang
sacred medicine songs and asked the horse to rise.
Three times the horse attempted to stand but he
could not. Finally, on the fourth try the horse
found the strength to get up and his master slowly
led him home. In gratitude to his faithful and
loving master the buckskin horse gave the man a
gift: a tipi decorated with the image of a horse.
Not only was the tipi beautiful to behold but it
held special powers and the man became famous ever
after for his ability to heal the sick.

I Wanna Be Like You

small and the little buckaroo with head held high,
ready to take on anything in life with the
confidence gained from a father’s hand … I titled
this piece I Wanna Be
Like You—at first
glance it seems obvious that the little one wants to
be like Dad, but sometimes as adults we long for our
childhood faith.”

Cats are good listeners, wise counselors and expert
comforters. Their presence in our lives is a gift
(as they often are quick to remind us) and their
little quirks help keep life interesting. This fine
and fancy feline’s owner has become accustomed to
weekly visits to the tailor and the need to share
