Western-born painter Charlie Dye left an illustration career in 1960 to become a cowboy painter in Sedona, Arizona. By that time he had already lived a colorful life, including sailing up and down the East Coast in a schooner with his wife and son. He found immediate success in the Southwest and, in 1965, he helped form the Cowboy Artists of America. This 1966 painting is numbered 180 out of 257 works cataloged in Charlie Dye: One Helluva Western Painter. The records were compiled by author Paul Weaver and Steve Dye, the artist’s son, from Charlie’s personal art journal. Dye titled this work in his journal as The Comings and Goings, and it even retains a version of that title (Coming and Going) on the back. The painting bears a strong resemblance to another work, Eastbound Meets Westbound, one of the last paintings Dye ever completed.
