Provenance: Private collection, Texas Raised as a cowboy in some of Arizona’s most remote and isolated country, Bill Owen exemplified the need to have the authentic West within Western art. He brought this ethos, and his enthusiasm, to the Cowboy Artists of America when he was inducted into the group in 1973. Owen created both paintings and sculpture early in his career, but after a 1989 rodeo accident took his sight from one eye he abandoned sculpture to focus on two-dimensional work. The limited vision didn’t slow him down; he produced many of his greatest works well into the 1990s and 2000s.
