Leslie Engelhart is a Western artist who knows cowboys,horses,and mules(骤子) .The detail of her pencil drawings comes from her familiarity of her subjects. She grew up in a big farm and mule packing country of Eastern California,and it is this country farm and pack outfit background that provides her with the contemporary Western themes she draws. With Western art,more than many other types of art,it must be intimately lived rather than viewed as a spectator in order to portray it with accurate insight.
Working primarily in pencil,Leslie paints everyday cowboy life on ranches (大农场) and pack outfits. She works off photos she has taken or ones other people send in for commissioned work. Her work is displayed in over 95 stores nationwide where you can view and purchase her original pencil drawings,lim-ited-edition prints,mugs,and notecards,or you can purchase them directly from Leslie. Call her today at 209-8872627.
If you like horses,if you like mules,if you like scenes from everyday life on a working ranch or pack outfit,you will enjoy viewing the cowboy and Western art featured on these pages. Call Leslie today to buy your own piece of the West.
