I am a graduate student conducting a survey about peoples preferences regarding contemporary artworks vs. traditional. I would like to use this image in my survey. This piece is very interesting. It has the components of a traditional still life while capturing modern elements including the use of technology and amazingly vivid colors. I look forward to getting feedback from a diverse population through e-mail and through one on one interviews. I would be happy to share the result findings if you should be interested.

These make fantastic graphic tees, travel mugs, or stickers for your own "Fa...

Beyond the Horizon: Reimagining the Western Sunset

Posted
Into the Sunset — © John Corney The image of the "lonely cowboy" is a staple of American art. He's usually riding alone, facing a harsh landscape — a study in solitude and self-reliance. I love those pictures too. But I've always been more interested in the variant of the story that has two people in the saddle.

We're not meeting them; we're watching them go. There's a particular emotional weight to seeing the back of someone you love riding off into a beautiful evening, and that's the feeling I most wanted the painting to hold. If you look closely a...
