Bill Owen was a working ranch hand from the time he could ride a horse, but his desire to see the lives of cowboys—as they are—represented in art, caused him to transpose his skill at observation from the range to the studio. Owen once said, “My objective is to chronicle the modern, working cowboy as he lives and works today… Not only is my public acceptance, and my fellow artists’ acceptance a tremendous compliment, but when my working cowboy friends drop by and say ‘Bill, that’s the way it really is, then I know that what I’m putting on canvas is truly worth the effort.”
