Miles City, Montana Art Auction

This original pastel of two mares and a colt grazing is called "Down to Business" I could literally spend all day observing horses. Usually while grazing , they seem pretty laid back about it, but these three are downright zealous in their focus on the business at hand. The painting will be available at the Custer County Art Center's 36th Annual Art Auction in Miles City, Montana. The Auction will be held October 1, 2011 at 7 pm. There will a reception, silent auction and the ever exhuberant live auction!

A Little Tough

Here is a tough cowboy on a tough little bronc making for an exciting ride. I've recently been focusing on oils and this is an 11 x 14", one of several I have painted in preparation for the Cody Art Show next week in Cody, Wyoming. Looking forward to it, my first time at this show. Click here for more information.

Bay & Palomino

Like getting lost in the colors of a campfire, there seems to be something therapeutic about watching the routine of grazing horses, as if all is right with the world as long as the horses are content.


This original pastel is currently available unframed for $100, shipping included in the U.S.

Cowboy with the Turquoise Scarf

Besides being part of the iconic images of Old West bank robbers and stagecoach hold-up gangs, a cowboy's bandana or scarf is really a necessary tool of the trade. It becomes a dust filter on a hot, dry roundup or warm protection against a stiff, chilling wind. And when the dirty work is done, there's nothing quite like the sight of a freshly cleaned up cowboy who puts on his dancing boots and his favorite hat and scarf and heads to town.

Staying Close

6 x 9" Original Pastel by Trish Stevenson
This young horse is sticking with the experienced horses as the herd moves, using his eyes and ears, learning as he goes.
