Elizabeth Lochrie Oil on Board Indian Painting
Lot #141 (Sale Order 141 of 1502)
Measures 6 3/4" high by 5 3/4" wide framed. Elizabeth Davey Lochrie (1890 - 1981) was active/lived in Montana, California. Elizabeth Lochrie is known for Indian portrait and figure, sculpture. ELIZABETH DAVEY LOCHRIE was born in Deer Lodge Montana, July 1, 1890; she was educated in Butte schools and received her art education at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn in 1911. During 1924-1925 she painted eighteen children's murals for the Montana State Hospital. After 1932, Lochrie specialized in Native American portraits, particularly of Blackfeet tribal members, having produced more than a thousand watercolors, oils, murals and sculptures. She was adopted by the Blackfeet and given the name Netchitaki which translates as Woman Alone In Her Way. Yesterday I painted all day," Elizabeth wrote in a 1932 letter to her family upon Glacier National Park stationary, "Gypsy and Bull Child posed two hours in the afternoon and we had a long visit beside. They wanted to take Son and I into the tribe and give us names. She was adopted by the Blackfeet and given the name Netchitaki which translates as Woman Alone In Her Way. Elizabeth returned almost every summer till the late 1940's to her adopted people. In her notes from the summer of 1942 she describes her visit to Sun Dance at Heart Butte Montana The medicine woman never raises her eyes, no water for four days save a sip at sundown and no food. Swims Under and Mink Woman broke a green sapling about six feet stripped all but a tuft at top. It signifies part of the Beaver Crown and means fertility. In the summer of 1945 she tells again of being part of this world, I took part in Feather Dance in Fish Robe Lodge. He came and asked me as they were having prayers for a little girl recovering; she had been in the Great Falls hospital for several months. Fish prayed, we all bowed our heads, about sixteen of us. Then came the feather dance and he painted my face. We used a handful of sticks decorated with three feathers each and three bones like in stick game but with no gambling Women side against men, we won three straight which took three hours. I sat at the head by Fish as chief guest, a great honor. Elizabeth for the rest of her life visited with many tribes throughout Montana, Wyoming and the West both to paint and learn about people. Her palette and brush captured a time when most Americans was unaware that the old ways were still alive. One could not have seen this without an open invite; she was truly Woman Alone In Her Way. She left behind a body of work which upon the back of almost every one is written a story that allows one to be know those people that she captured through this developed bond. Today when her works are displayed it is not uncommon for Native Americans to come and show their children their grandfathers and grandmothers. They talk about the objects in the hands, the clothes that are worn, and this is one of the greatest compliment an artist may ever receive. Elizabeth died in the company of her family in Ojai, California in 1981.

Lot #447 (Sale Order 447 of 1502)
Works in progress. Pot is 4 5/8" long, 4 1/8" wide, 2 7/8" tall. Daro Flood (1954 - 2017) was active/lived in Arizona. Daro Flood is known for Portrait bust Indian and cowboy sculpture. Daro Flood was a jeweler who made the decision to fully dedicate himself to realist sculpture. His studio is in Arizona, and he derives his subject matter from personal experiences depicting the people and places with which he has had contact. American Indians of the western United States are a favorite subject, and he has received commissions for public art. Longtime Jackson resident Daro M. Flood died Dec. 23, 2018 at his home in Jackson. He was 63. His family and friends provided the following. Daro Flood was born Aug. 24, 1954, to Dick Flood Sr. and Geraldine Flood, in Jackson Hole, WY. His older brother was Dick Flood II. After finishing high school in Scottsdale, Arizona, Daro was appointed conservator of the museum collections of the Alaska State Museum in Juneau, Alaska. Art was a mainstay of Daro’s life. His father opened the first art gallery in Jackson, Trailside Gallery, and his brother owned Main Trail Gallery. Daro himself was best known for his sculptures and paintings, but was hailed as a multitalented artist. Two longtime friends offered the following words on Daro: Daro is a very special person. In my 50-plus years of being with and working with very creative people, including accomplished artists, versatile artisans and highly capable craftsman, I have never known anyone who mastered so many aspects of all those endeavors. He truly was a many-faceted, amazingly capable artist, artisan and craftsman all rolled into one. He spent his whole life learning and mastering skills that for the most part are rarely mastered by very many people nowadays. He is the only person I have ever met that I would truly call a Renaissance Man — with capital letters. He was ‘a man apart’ in terms of modern society, but in a good way. He had great skills with his hands, but he also had the closest thing these days to a 19th century sensibility about nature and the natural world around him. He knew and understood things that few modern people do. He was one of the few people I have ever known that could be dropped into the middle of the wilderness and make do for himself just fine. His great excitement and enthusiasm for making things was infectious and marvelous. I’m all the sadder that I was not able to spend more time with him. I will miss him always. Patrick Stewart, former senior curator at Amon Carter Museum of American Art in Fort Worth, Texas. I have known Daro Flood since he was a gleam in his dad’s eye. I remember some of his early art ventures — kindergarten stuff — but already showing promise of talent far above the norm. By the time that I became deeply involved in the Montana Historical Society and was editing Montana: the Magazine of Western History, [a state] where the Flood family were frequent visitors, I had no doubt that Daro someday would become the closest counterpart to C.M. Russell in 20th century Western art. In 1972 Daro, age 18, came to live with our family in Juneau, Alaska, where I was director of the Alaska State Museum. Even though our families had been friends for many, many moons, his was not a social visit. Against the advice of my curatorial staff, Daro was hired as a special conservator, entrusted with some of our most priceless but deteriorating ancient Eskimo ivory and Aleut artifacts. Daro demonstrated that he could restore ivory, wood, skin-sewing, basketry and literally anything that ancient man had created since the first hunters of the hairy mammoth and the saber-toothed tiger began crossing the Bering Sea land bridge to populate the American continent. In less than a year Daro accomplished a conservation miracle. He literally ‘saved for posterity’ some of Alaska’s most priceless and irreplaceable cultural objects — Old Bering Sea and Punuk-period ivory art, Aleut headdresses, harpoons and utensils, ancient Athapascan quill-work and birchbark objects, priceless Tlingit, Haida and Copper River Indian artifacts, which could be exhibited in the museum displays and archaeological and anthropological study collection for the first time. From that time on, Daro to me was the re-creation of Kid Russell. Now, though his magnificent sculpture, he reveals that promise. In my judgement Daro is the best Western sculptor of any I have known in the past 50 years, including Remington, Proctor, Borglum and Weaver. Daro Flood, without imitation, comes closest to Charles Marion Russell. His research is impeccable, his skill and technique, like Russell, intuitive and true. He has not yet reached his creative pinnacle. Every time I visit Daro and see his latest creations I see discernible improvement in technical perfection and inspiring artistry. I am not aware of any other contemporary American artist whose work is appreciating at such a pace. The collector who acquires a bronze by Daro Flood not only gai

Ahmad Khan Bohlin Unger Indian Belt Buckle
Lot #609 (Sale Order 609 of 1502)
Sterling Silver. Made by Ahmad Khan for Edward H. Bohlin. One of a kind, came directly from Ahmad's estate. It comes with a Concho Belt set with Silver Dollar Conchos. Museum Quality. Ahmad remembers the plang of steel hammers as the Master Silversmiths molded and crafted pieces of precious metals into flowers, leaves and intricate curves imitating the beauty of nature eternally preserved in silver and gold. He revered these masters of trade as classical Italian sculptors, creating beauty out of raw marble harvested from the earth, except this time the marble became silver, gold and bronze. The smell of burning kilns is still vivid in Ahmad's memory when he served as an errand boy in the silver shops as a young boy growing up in British Guyana, before he was old enough to qualify as an apprentice. Cowboys and their trusted horses, Western outlaws and heroes with their holsters, guns and spurs - all seemed like a fantasy world for young Ahmad. It seemed to be so far away, so out of reach, but he dreamed of someday heading up North to the land of America, the land of the cowboy. At age sixteen, Ahmad was finally old enough to apply for an apprenticeship with one of the Master Silversmiths. He proved worthy of becoming an apprentice by showing the Masters his artistic talent in wood and ivory carvings he made during his breaks as an errand boy. Ahmad was somewhat apprehensive at first to show his talent in mere wood and ivory, but he apologized to the masters explaining that his means of life could not allow him to purchase valuable pieces of gold and silver in order to perform his carvings. The masters were immediately impressed with this young man's natural talent and perseverance when they saw that he had saved all of his earned money to purchase his own carving tools. It was four years of hard, dedicated work and study under the Masters until Ahmad himself became a Master Smith. Under the master's teaching, Ahmad learned the centuries old secrets and tricks of the trade. He had mastered how to design, mold and copy any artistic form into gold or silver in the same perfected fashion of his mentors. With his tools of knowledge and gifted talent, his original inspiration to become a silversmith would finally take Ahmad away from his homeland to the land of the cowboys. He would depart from his family on his voyage to the States, to become the artistic craftsman for cowboys. Upon his arrival to America, Ahmad inquired about the great tradition and craftsmanship with the Bohlin Shop in Hollywood, California. He had learned of the Bohlin shop being the most exclusive and one of the largest silver shops in America, with a notable list of patrons. Mr. Bohlin was a legend in Hollywood who literally carved the way for the craftsman tradition. He rode with Buffalo Bill Cody and on the last stagecoach in this country. Tom Mix, Gary Cooper, Clark Gable and Buck Jones were just a few of his Hollywood patrons, not to mention the voluptuous Mae West who commissioned Mr. Bohlin to make a silver telephone for her personal use. As protege to the famous Master Silversmith Bud Phillips, Ahmad reached popularity with Hollywood celebrities between 1981 and 1987. He created masterpieces of wearable art for such distinguished patrons as Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, Gene Autry, Clayton "Lone Ranger" Moore, Montie Montana, Burt Reynolds, Clint Eastwood, Larry Hagman and even President Reagan. This list goes on to include other famous actors, politicians, musicians and cowboys. Ahmad is quick to share that President Reagan proudly wore his 4-piece, 3-color, 5-A, 18K gold and sterling silver buckle set during his presidency which was given to him as a gift by country singer Lee Greenwood. He was so impressed by the buckle that President Reagan personally called back to highly compliment the designer and craftsman of the piece. Texas Congressman Frank Tijeda once called Ahmad to personally praise him for his work saying that he constantly receives compliments for the craftsmanship and beauty of this custom silver buckle. "It gives me a sense of pride when I see a famous figure wearing my art pieces, knowing that my initials are on the back of the buckles that hold up the pants of some famous and influential people," Ahmad jokingly admits. His first Hollywood break came when he was hired by the highly respected Bud Phillips at Bohlin Company to work on the project to make a replica of the famous Tom Mix spurs for actor/stuntman Dean Smith. The original spurs were hand crafted by Mr. Bohlin himself, but when he passed away in 1980, Bud Phillips searched for a Master Silversmith who had the ability to carry out the Bohlin tradition. He took Ahmad under his wings and fully trained him for making western wearable art. "I always admire seeing a young Master at work," Bud Phillips declared as he quietly observed the young master Ahmad at his workstation. Bud Phillips himself started in the early 1930s working for Hollywood legend Gene Autry, an

Harry Andrew Jackson Ranch Branding Irons
Lot #649 (Sale Order 649 of 1502)
As used while he was residing at the Cal Todd ranch. Provenance: Harry Andrew Jackson Estate. Harry Andrew Jackson (1924 - 2011) was active/lived in Wyoming, Illinois. Harry Jackson is known for Sculpture-western figure, horses. Born with the name Harry Shapiro on the South Side of Chicago, Harry Jackson became a well-known 20th-century artists whose wide-ranging work includes painting and sculpture and styles ranging from Abstract Expressionism to Realism. He was raised in a family where his mother ran a cafe near the Stockyards, and his father was a drunken, violent man. Jackson was often a truant from school and loved to wander around the Harding Museum looking at Frederic Remington bronzes or to hang out at his mother's cafe listening to stories from the cowboys who had brought their cattle by trains to the stockyards. A teacher noticed his art talent and got him a scholarship to the Chicago Art Institute's Saturday children's classes. At age 14, he ran away from home to Wyoming where he worked at a lumber company and on a ranch. He regarded these experiences as his spiritual awakening, and his art talents were reinforced by praise from his cowboy peers. In the late 1930s, he returned to Chicago and studied at the Frederick Mizen Academy, The Chicago Academy of Fine Arts, and The Chicago Art Institute. In 1942, he entered the Marine Corps and became close to a man who introduced him to the classics of literature. In 1943, at Tarawa, he had shrapnel head wounds that caused him epileptic seizures for most of the remainder of his life, and he also took two bullets to the leg at Saipan. He was then, at age 20, ordered back to the U.S. where he was appointed an Official Marine Corps Combat Artist, the youngest in Marine history. Following discharge, he worked as a radio actor and went to New York with the idea of meeting his hero, Jackson Pollock, whom in 1948 he found to be "a beautiful fantastic man." The two formed a lasting friendship, and Pollock introduced Jackson to Abstract Expressionism, which helped Jackson express his troubled background. Jackson married artist Grace Hartigan, his first of six wives, at Pollock's home with Pollock serving as best man. He also took classes at the Brooklyn Museum and studied with Rufino Tamayo and Hans Hofmann. The newlyweds went to Mexico and further explored abstraction, and a year later the couple divorced. Jackson did scenery painting for theatre and television, headed to Europe, and returned to New York where he did portrait painting and began to break away from Abstract Expressionism, something that met with disapproval from his peers. He had a Fulbright Travel Scholarship, did some heroic paintings in Denmark, and added sculpting to his repertoire, a medium inspired on March 4, 1958 when he arrived in Peitrasanta, Italy, where a new foundry gave him space. He remained in Italy for several years. In 1966, his entire output of western art was given the first one-man show at the new National Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City. By 1970, he was spending most of his time in Wyoming, becoming a resident of Cody, and was elected to the Cowboy Artists of America, but got "thrown out" because of his refusal to choose allegiances between it and the Cowboy Hall of Fame--entities that had had a major falling out.

Ace Powell Montana Native American Indian Bronze
Lot #685 (Sale Order 685 of 1502)
7 3/4" by 11 1/8". Born in Tularosa, New Mexico, Ace Powell became a painter of western action scenes, wild animals, and Indian figures in realistic style and in the tradition of Charles Russell. Powell's trademark signature on his paintings is the ace of diamonds, which also became his nickname. He was prolific, creating between 12,000 and 15,000 paintings and sculptures. He considered oil to be his best medium although he loved sculpting in terra cotta, stone, and wood. He also was skilled at etching. His life has involved many changes of location and personal circumstance, much of it due to his alcoholism, which he eventually overcame. Eventually he settled in Kalispell. He moved to Montana at age one month. His mother was a schoolteacher, and his father was a cowboy foreman on the Ben Steven's horse ranch, then a homesteader, and eventually a worker for the Glacier National Park Service. Charlie Russell' s summer home was near the Powell home, and the Russells were family friends and encouraged Asa, nicknamed "Ace" in his artistic talent. He loved the Blackfeet Indians so much his father sent him to school on their reservation, and these people became one of his most frequent subjects. He also worked on the Bar X Six Ranch where he was a saddle-horse guide for many visiting successful western artists. He built a studio in Choteau, Montana and from there worked as a wood animal sculptor and also did book illustrations. After his first wife died when he was 29, he was briefly in the Army, worked in a defense plant, and was in the plastic figurine business in Yakima, Washington, but his partner ran off with his second wife, obviously terminating their business arrangement. He returned to Glacier Park for six years with his young son and then at age 40 enrolled in the University of Montana on the G.I. Bill. But he disliked the abstract art being promoted, so he quit and took the Famous Artists correspondence course, which really helped him down the path that established his art career. In 1952, he married artist Nancy McLaughlin, and in Hungry Horse, Montana they successfully operated a gallery, but it burned to the ground in 1964. They divorced, and in 1965, he married Thelma Conner.
Jack JP Kelley Montana Cowboy Bronze
Lot #686 (Sale Order 686 of 1502)
Title is Just Five Jumps. 11" by 7 1/2" by 6 3/4". Jack Kelley (1927 - 2005) was active/lived in Montana, Arizona. Jack Kelley is known for Sculpture, painting. John Phillip "J.P." Kelley was born March 3, 1927, in Phoenix, Arizona. He was the son of a range boss and cowboy, John Constantine Kelley, who was born and raised in rugged New Mexico. As a young man, J.P. worked as a cowpuncher on the Apache reservation in Arizona alongside his dad in the 1940's and 1950's. During that era, he went by the nickname Jack Kelley. In his own words, he recalled, "I was raised on a horse, staring cattle in the rump. I rode and worked on more mean horses than the average modern-day cowhand ever saw. J.P. Kelley’s firsthand experience as a true cowboy influenced and informed his artwork. Kelley indicated "his first award in the art field came at about age 9 [thus circa 1936] when he entered a painting of two horses fighting in the county fair at Cibecue, Arizona. The painting, done on a piece of discarded cardboard, took first place and launched Kelley’s art career. He also drew on his knowledge of cowboy life when writing more than a dozen poems under his pen name "Jack Kelley and a multitude of fabulous Western pen-and-ink sketches and cartoons. A 1973 article about "J.P. Kelley (the nickname he used for the next two decades) in the Western Horseman magazine said he “didn’t settle strictly into an art career until 1968. I would sketch, paint, or sculpt, and often sold my work for fair prices, but this was only on a hobby basis. After J.P. moved to the Flathead Valley in Montana around 1969, his art career flourished. During the 1970's and 1980's, he specialized in Western bronze sculptures, cast at the renowned Ace Powell Foundry in Kalispell and elsewhere. Altogether, J.P. created no fewer than 200 sculptures of various sizes and media, many with tremendous detail and historic accuracy, right down to how the cowboy held his reins or the anatomical correctness of the figures. J.P.’s bronze sculptures were exhibited around the West as well as on a national tour in 1973 that included the world-famous Kennedy Gallery, New York; Newman Galleries, Philadelphia; the Wally F. Findlay Galleries in Chicago; and Willoughby-Toschi Art Gallery in San Francisco. In 1980, Kelley took his art to Europe in conjunction with a promotion of Western products sponsored by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. He also won numerous Best of Show awards and earned his place among a host of talented regional peers, such as Bob Scriver, Ace Powell, Tom Saubert, Elmer Sprunger, Fred Fellows, Tom Sanders, and many other well-known artists. By 1990, J.P. had moved to rural Oregon and showed his bronze sculptures only occasionally thereafter. During retirement, he turned his attention to compiling and publishing a couple collections of his pen-and ink sketch cartoons. The first, Whang Leather, captures cowboy life on the range, while his second, I Saw It at the Mall, is a contemporary and humorous look at American culture. He also published a collection of his early working sketches and notes in a book titled A Trash Bin Interception. All three titles are out of print. J.P. spent his final few years in Sturgis, South Dakota, where he died January 28, 2005, just shy of his 78th birthday. Fortunately for the public, some of his bronze sculptures are still being sold and shown in secondary markets, but the majority of them remain in beloved private collections.

Laton Alton Huffman Montana Signed Photo
Lot #823 (Sale Order 823 of 1502)
Original hand signed in pencil photo. 9 1/8" long, 22 1/2" wide. Title is Round Up at Work Sand Flats of Big Dry Montana, August 1900. Laton A. Huffman (1854 - 1931) was active/lived in Montana. Laton Huffman is known for National park photography, western settlement themes. Laton A. Huffman was born on October 31, 1854 on the family farm near Castalia, Iowa. Like Charles M. Russell (1864-1926), he didn't like school, but loved reading western adventure books. In the spring of 1878, he moved to Moorhead, Minnesota to apprentice with Frank Jay Haynes (1853-1921) who eventually received acclaim as the official photographer of Yellowstone National Park. Huffman was hired in 1879 as the official photographer of Fort Keogh, near Miles City to replace Stanley J. Morrow (1843-1921). Morrow was one of the first to extensively photograph the Custer Battlefield. By 1883, Huffman was a well known and respected regional photographer when he published his newest catalogue titled Huffman's Latest Yellowstone Park Views, Indian Portraits, Miscellaneous Mountain Views and the Only Choice Hunting Scenes Published. The catalog listed 160 subjects taken from more than 300 negatives that he had acquired. Some of the photographs made their way into Russell's personal collection. Huffman's photographs caught the eye of many famous painters including Frederic Remington, Charlie Russell, and Ed Borein. Remington's ability to portray the West from such a distance was achieved by his use of photographic images that were taken out West and used as references in some cases, and essentially copied in others, to complete his work back in New York. The illustrations that made Remington famous were painted for a series authored by Teddy Roosevelt in Century Magazine in 1888. Both Roosevelt and Remington visited with Huffman in Miles City when they passed through town. Remington's illustrations such as The Mid-Day Meal and Branding a Calf were based directly on Huffman photographs with no attribution to him. Even Charlie Russell relied on some of his friend's photographs to complete his paintings. One of the earliest examples is Russell's Searching For the Brand completed in Ralph De Camp's studio in Helena. The most noted is Russell's famous 1900 watercolor, Scattering the Riders, a morning scene where the cowboys are receiving their orders for the day. The piece in composition was similar to Huffman's Telling Off Men for the Circle. After the turn of the century, Russell relied less on Huffman's images, but even The Roundup was inspired by Huffman's roundup scenes as noted by Brian Dippie in Looking at Russell: "His 1913 oil, The Roundup, seems almost photographic, more reminiscent of Huffman's panoramic views of the roundups, for example, than Russell's usual roping pictures precisely because it provides an overview of the subject that de-emphasizes the individuals in it." It is worth comparing Russell's artistic expression with the early photographers such as Huffman. Russell, the romantic, presented an idealized West in full color filled with noble Indians and heroic cowboys living harmoniously under the "Big Sky." His best known works were completed nearly thirty years after arriving in Montana, and while more accurate than any other Western painter of the era, he often painted the imagined West. On the other hand, the early photographer's most important works were recorded within the first few years after they arrived out West. They were a pragmatic group making a living anyway they could from studio portraits—Indians, cowboys, prominent citizens, children, pets, soldiers, and whoever could pay—and outdoor scenes—scenic wonders, railroads, mining, downtowns, famous buildings, wildlife, hunting and herds, to name a few. One of the most lucrative jobs was commissions from wealthy ranch owners and stockmen to have their ranches and roundup crews photographed. Photographers could be seen all over Montana riding their trusty steeds with camera and tripod in hand for miles out to remote sites for their work. They captured the real West in all its glory until civilization put an end to it. L. A. Huffman spoke for all western photographers and Charlie Russell when he eloquently and poignantly lamented: Kind fate had it that I should be Post photographer with the army during the Indian campaigns close following the annihilation of Custer's command. This Yellowstone-Big Horn country was then un-penned of wire, unspoiled by railway, dam, ditch. Eastman had not yet made the Kodak, but thanks be, there was the old wet plate, the collodian bottle and bath. I made photographs. With crude home made cameras from saddle and in log shack, I saved something. Round about us the army of buffalo hunters—red men and white—were waging the final war of extermination upon the last great herds of American bison upon this continent. Then came the cattlemen, the "trail boss" with his army of cowboys, and the great cattle roundups. Then the army of railroad build

Will James Big Enough Horse Photo Montana

Will James and the horse that gave him the idea for his new book, Big Enough, which Charles Scribner's Sons have just published. Dated 1931. A rare image of the Cowboy Artist. 4 1/2" by 6 1/4". Will Roderick James (1892 - 1942) was active/lived in Montana, California, Quebec / Canada. Will James is known for Book illustration, western horse -genre painting. Joseph Ernest Nephtali Dufault, later to be known as Will James, was born on June 6, 1892, in Quebec, Canada. Known for both his writing and his precise pencil drawings, Will's drawing experiences began on his mother's kitchen floor. At a young age, he departed Canada and traveled to the United States, working and drifting primarily as a cowboy. He served in the army and soon began selling his sketches. In 1920 he married, and shortly after that, he had a brief period of study at Yale University, but that enrollment was short lived because he felt closed in by the environment and missed his wife Alice. During that time, he painted the occasional still life, which was atypical of him. His writing career began when he sent in an essay, accompanied with illustrations, to the New York offices of Scribner's. His easy-going and casual style, with drawings, provided a combination that editor Maxwell Perkins liked. (Perkins also worked with Ernest Hemingway, Thomas Wolfe, and other notables) James' pencil drawings were precise and depicted his own experiences as a cowboy. His first novel, Smoky, was introduced in 1926 and won the Newberry medal for literature from the American Library Association. He also produced an oil by the same name, again his most famous and recognized work. Two years later his first writing of Bucking Horse Riders was sold, and since then has never been out of print. His last book, "The American Cowboy" was written in 1942. He wrote and illustrated 23 books in all, with appeal to a wide audience. His art appeared in the pages of books and periodicals, as well as illustrating the works of other authors. Will James spent his latter years at his home in Billings, Montana, and on his ranch, the "Rocking R Ranch", at Pryor Creek, Montana. During his lifetime, he was fortunate to watch his popularity grow, as he witnessed movies made from his books. Despite his popularity and success as a novelist and artist, James had a tragic life. He served a short prison term for rustling, experienced an unpleasant marriage, and had a severe alcohol dependency. His life ended at an early age of 50 in 1942.

In 1920 he married, and shortly after that, he had a brief period of study at Yale University, but that enrollment was short lived because he felt closed in by the environment and missed his wife Alice. During that time, he painted the occasional still life, which was atypical of him. His writing career began when he sent in an essay, accompanied with illustrations, to the New York offices of Scribner's. His easy-going and casual style, with drawings, provided a combination that editor Maxwell Perkins liked. (Perkins also worked with Ernest Hemingway, Thomas Wolfe, and other notables) James' pencil drawings were precise and depicted his own experiences as a cowboy. His first novel, Smoky, was introduced in 1926 and won the Newberry medal for literature from the American Library Association. He also produced an oil by the same name, again his most famous and recognized work. Two years later his first writing of Bucking Horse Riders was sold, and since then has never been out of print. His last book, "The American Cowboy" was written in 1942. He wrote and illustrated 23 books in all, with appeal to a wide audience. His art appeared in the pages of books and periodicals, as well as illustrating the works of other authors. Will James spent his latter years at his home in Billings, Montana, and on his ranch, the "Rocking R Ranch", at Pryor Creek, Montana. During his lifetime, he was fortunate to watch his popularity grow, as he witnessed movies made from his books. Despite his popularity and success as a novelist and artist, James had a tragic life. He served a short prison term for rustling, experienced an unpleasant marriage, and had a severe alcohol dependency. His life ended at an early age of 50 in 1942.

Eanger Irving Couse Native American Drawing
Lot #838 (Sale Order 838 of 1502)
Double Sided Study. 4 1/8" by 6 1/8". Authenticated by Elizabeth A. Couse. Eanger Irving Couse (1866 - 1936) was active/lived in New Mexico, New York, Michigan / France. Eanger Couse is known for Indian figure and genre painting, illustration. Born in Saginaw, Michigan, Eanger Couse is primarily known for paintings of Taos Pueblo Indian males sitting or squatting by camp fire light, suggesting that Indians were peaceful, dignified human beings and not the savages of Western lore. Growing up in Saginaw, he lived among the Chippewa Indians and as a youngster did sketches of these native people. From a poor family, he was a determined artist who studied for three months at the Art Institute of Chicago, having earned just enough money by painting houses, and then he returned to Saginaw to earn more money so he could go to New York City which he did in 1885. He enrolled in the National Academy of Design and did many odd jobs to support himself, and after two years returned to Saginaw, again to earn money. In 1887, he went to Paris to the Academie Julian where his great influence became the superb draftsmanship and classical techniques of William Adolphe Bouguereau. Couse returned to Paris many times, and on one of these trips met his future wife, Virginia Walker, an art student whose family had a ranch in Oregon. When he and his wife visited her parents on a sheep ranch in Oregon, he painted the Yakima, Umatilla, and Klikitat Indians in the pastel colors of the French Barbizon School. However, there was little interest in Indian subject matter for fine art in America. He also painted pastoral scenes, which were more popular than his Indian subjects. Couse went back to France and settled in a rural town in the province of Pas de Calais on the English Channel and painted bucolic genre scenes, invariably with sheep on hillsides. Although he had stylistic influences from Europe, he became more and more determined to create an art that was uniquely American and was increasingly fascinated with Indians as subject matter. In 1902, Couse visited Taos, New Mexico for the first time, having heard about it in Paris from his friend, Joseph Henry Sharp. In Pueblo Indians, Couse found the subject matter that seemed right for him, but he had difficulty finding ones to pose because of their belief that the soul of the sitter passes into the picture once it is completed. In 1912, when the Taos Society of Artists was formed, he was elected its first president, and in 1927, he and his family moved there permanently. His wife died two years later, much affecting his spirit and the vitality of his paintings. Although he posed models for sketching outdoors, he continued to paint in his comfortable studio in a French academic manner. He also painted occasionally in Arizona, going first in 1903, to the Hopi ceremonies at Walpi. His models for most of his New Mexico Indian figure painting were Ben Lujan and Geronimo Gomez, Taos Pueblo residents. The tone is poetic and peaceful and reflects a civilization that is at peace with itself. Usually the squatting Indian figures were engaged in domestic activity such as preparing food, and their handsome physiques were accentuated by moonlight. Beginning 1914, his paintings were used on calendars by the Santa Fe Railway and became the basis for the company's comprehensive Southwest art collection. The first calendar painting was "Wal-si-el, Good Medicine", which initiated the tradition of using Taos painters on the calendars, and twenty-three of them had work by Couse.

One of the many variations of The Texas Steer. Signed CMR with skull Measures: 7" L x 5 7/8" W x 4 1/5" inches H. Provenance: Harry Andrew Jackson Estate Charles Marion Russell (1864 - 1926) was active/lived in Montana, California, Missouri. Charles Russell is known for Indian-frontier genre painting, sculpture. Charles M. Russell, the nostalgic, held tight memories of a youthful past when the West belonged to God. There was a sense of loss, as poignant as losing a loved one. The specter of what this loss meant loomed over Russell the rest of his life. He was the quintessential nostalgic who grabbed history and married it to idealized memory and imagination. For example, despite Russell never witnessing a buffalo hunt, it became the basis for his most popular and desired art. Nancy Russell explained, "No man can be a painter without imagination." The Romantic art of the nineteenth century was the cornerstone to build the West reimagined for not only Russell, but also his contemporaries and future artists. No Western American artist fought back harder against racism, sexism, and championed environmentalism more than did Charles M. Russell. He thrived on imagining a time when the land was pristine, women were held in high regard, and people of color were the heroes. Paradoxically, the industrialized world championed just the opposite. To many, his life appeared odd—that cowboy hat, that sash, that unruly hair, that folksy talk. He and his art embraced an identity of an exile from a different place and time, which is even more appealing today. In that way, Russell was a visionary who instilled hope in all who saw his art, and his heart. For those reasons and much more, he is the most beloved of all the Western American artists. The Charles M. Russell Museum in Great Falls, Montana; the Charles M. Russell Center for the Study of Art of the American West at the University of Oklahoma in Norman; the Charles M. Russell Center Series on Art and Photography of the American West (books published by the University of Oklahoma University Press); the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge in Montana; the Russell Riders; and the Russell Skull Society are a testament to that fact. The Cowboy Artists of America have been called "The Sons of Charlie Russell" by art historian B. Byron Price for good reason. Russell was a legendary painter, sculptor, and author. Ever humble and self-effacing, as his fame skyrocketed, he never forgot his cowboy friends. The importance of his life and works is that no one has inspired more new generations of artists. Russell lived in the past and his wife Nancy who was his business manager lived for the future. How could a self-trained artist living in remote Montana become the highest paid artist in America? It’s quite a story. Charles Marion Russell was born on March 19, 1864 in St. Louis, Missouri, a bustling gateway to the West of some 200,000 people. Family history and adventure stories such as the Leatherstocking Tales by James Fenimore Cooper lured Russell to the West. On a crisp March day in 1880 Charles M. Russell jumped off the stagecoach in Helena, Montana Territory and took his turn as the latest easterner seeking western adventure. Accompanying him was Willis L.W. "Pike" Miller, a family acquaintance who acted as Russell’s guardian and gave him his first job in Montana on a sheep ranch Miller owned in the Judith Basin. While Miller was kind enough to chaperone Russell, they soon parted ways because Russell wanted nothing to do with sheepherding. For twelve years Russell and his horse Monte were together on the open range mainly nighthawking—somewhat of a lowly cowboy job of watching the horses overnight while the rest of the cowboys slept—until 1893 when Russell began transitioning from cowboy artist to full-time artist. Only a teenager, Russell was younger than most cowboys who were usually in their early twenties but shared with them the qualities of being gregarious, humble, energetic and adventuresome. Charlie saw the cowboy as the last frontiersman—unlike the colorless overburdened farmer and sheep herder. The period from 1906 to 1910 was one of the most productive and enjoyable times of Charlie’s life, which in no small part was due to the summers at Bull Head Lodge and the mentoring by others such as Philip R. Goodwin who visited him there in 1907 and 1910. Glacier National Park has the type of views that keep postcard publishers in business. The mountains fanned the flames of Charlie Russell’s creative genius. He understood that the mountains don’t need us, we need the mountains. Charlie’s favorite place in the world was the lodge, a log structure nestled among the cedar, fir, and tamarack along the shoreline of beautiful Lake McDonald. The years from 1911 to 1915 were a time

Measures 11" tall by 9 3/4" wide by 6" deep. In his lifetime polymath Frederic Remington was the most successful and famous Western American artist. His immense talents included excelling as an illustrator, author, sculptor, and fine artist. His was a life tragically cut short. Born on October 4, 1861 in Canton, a small berg in bucolic upper state New York, he was much influenced by his father Seth Pierpont Remington, a Republican journalist who founded the St. Lawrence Plaindealer. His father had been a captain in the Civil War, and in 1870 President Ulysses S. Grant appointed him United States Collector of the Port of Ogdensburg, New York. In 1876 young Frederic enrolled at Highland Military Academy in Worcester, Massachusetts where he studied for the next two years. Two years later he enrolled at Yale for one year to study in the School of Fine Arts. His two loves were art and football. Only three months into school, he published his first illustration in the on-campus newspaper Yale Courant. On the gridiron he was a natural, demonstrating great strength and agility. Like Theodore Roosevelt, Remington also enjoyed boxing. A year later he met his future wife Eva Caten from Gloversville, New York. After the death of Remington’s father from tuberculosis on February 18, 1879, Eva rejected his first marriage proposal. Floundering, Remington headed to the American West to find himself—much like Theodore Roosevelt did when his mother and wife died on the same day. That led to a trip to Montana where he completed a number of sketches. Invigorated by his Western experiences, in February 1883 he headed to Kansas and with part of his inheritance bought a 160 acre sheep ranch near Peabody, Kansas. That failed adventure lasted about a year, and he then relocated to Kansas City, Missouri where Eva would join him as his wife. Yet he squandered the rest of his inheritance on a saloon there. After more illustrations were sold to Harper’s Weekly, in 1885 the Remingtons moved to New York City, and in 1886 he attended the Art Students League. By then Remington was earning $1,200 a year, twice the income of a school teacher. Other magazines such as St. Nicholas and Outing also published his art. His work certainly impressed a young Theodore Roosevelt who was chronicling his life in Medora—now in North Dakota—for a serial that ran in The Century Magazine. It was very common at the time for authors to serialize their works in magazines before they were published in book form. In the fall of 1887 Remington was commissioned to illustrate the magazine stories which ended up in Roosevelt’s 1888 classic book Ranch Life and the Hunting Trail. Early on, a lasting friendship between the two was cemented through these publications. By 1889 he had garnered national notoriety as one of the most accomplished illustrators in the country. He was a national celebrity. In 1889 his monumental canvas A Dash for the Timber was exhibited at the National Academy of Design. The New York Times reported, "The picture at the Autumn exhibition of the Academy of Design before which stands the largest number of people is Frederic Remington’s Dash for the Timber." A Silver medal for Last Lull in the Fight followed at the Exposition Universelle in Paris. In 1891 the National Academy of Design elected Remington as an Associate member. Yet he was never admitted as National Academician, despite support from fellow artists Gilbert Gaul, Childe Hassam, and others. His financial success allowed the Remingtons to move into a grand home he named Ednion Algonquin for "a place where I live in New Rochelle, New York. A young Norman Rockwell would someday paint in his studio. Through his travels, Remington embraced social Darwinism survival of the fittest that championed the U.S. military’s domination of the inferior Native Americans. Theodore Roosevelt, George Armstrong Custer, and Remington along with most other Americans—idolized Charles Darwin. As early as 1888 Remington started contributing short stories along with illustrations to magazines. His writings teemed with romantic Western stories chalk full of drama and violence. Initially, they presented the cavalryman as the hero and the Indian as the villain, especially when the Indian had been tainted with the vices of the white man.

G C Wentworth Cowboy Shootout Bronze
Lot #863 (Sale Order 863 of 1502)
Title is Shootout. 16" wide by 36" long by 12" tall. Gerry C. Wentworth (1933 - 1985) was active/lived in Montana. "Gerry" Wentworth spent his life capturing, in paintings and sculpture, his personal experiences and the romance of the Old West that he deeply loved. Gerry was born in Great Falls, Montana, on July 4, 1932 and seemed predisposed to be an artist. His interest in art began when he was in grade school, stopping after school to watch John Clark, the famous Indian woodcarver. A part time job after school hours of swamping out a local saloon provided Gerry with a unique and subtle exposure to the tales of the "real" west from those who helped create it. In addition to listening to the cowboys, he had the opportunity to study several works by C. M. Russell that hung in the bar. When he was 15, he spent his summers working on a ranch as a wrangler. In the off hours, he committed to the bunkhouse wall in a series of small pictorial scenes the feelings he had about his daily work . At 17, he became a full time bronco buster for the Yellowstone Park Company which needed horses for trail rides in Yellowstone Park. His work in the art field began in earnest about 1955 and his skills developed steadily over the years. Gerry's skills were largely self-taught, with only brief formal training. His exposure to the legacy of C. M. Russell and the inspiration of Montana's formidable scenery, rich culture, and colorful history created a uniquely realistic and pleasingly detailed art style. In the 1960's, Gerry became deeply involved in American Indian activities on the reservations in Montana. As a result of his dedication and sensitivity to the culture, he was inducted into the Blackfoot Tribe as Chief Rising Sun. Although he was equally talented in oil on canvas, oil on velvet, watercolor, pastels, and woodcarving, his interest was primarily in sculpture. Gerry's sculptures reflect his intimate knowledge of animals gained from the hard work on local ranches as a growing boy. His love of hunting and of the history of the Old West deepened the ability to capture nuances of the western outdoors. Gerry prided himself on the exceptional research that he undertook before beginning his works and would not begin a piece until he was satisfied that the details would be accurate and historically correct. In 1974, Gerry moved from painting to sculpting, feeling that work in three dimensions was more descriptive than painting. After a period of experimentation, he settled on wax as the best working material to allow the level of detail that he desired. Many of his sculptures are now available in bronze, the perfect medium to reflect the power, dignity, detail, and grace of the scenes that he depicts. The realism in Gerry's animal figures and the accuracy in depicting historic events are largely responsible for broad interest and acceptance of his work by collectors of western art throughout the United States and foreign countries. Gerry exhibited extensively in the west at events including the C. M. Russell Show, Phippen Art Show, and Frank Tenney Johnson Show. He won Best of Show at the Northwest Americana Art Show, Seattle, WA in 1981. Gerry succumbed to kidney failure in 1985.

Lot #867 (Sale Order 867 of 1502)
Title is Buffalo Cow. 7 1/4" tall, 5 1/2" long, 3 5/8" wide. Provenance: Harry Andrew Jackson Estate. Harry Andrew Jackson (1924 - 2011) was active/lived in Wyoming, Illinois. Harry Jackson is known for Sculpture-western figure, horses. Born with the name Harry Shapiro on the South Side of Chicago, Harry Jackson became a well-known 20th-century artists whose wide-ranging work includes painting and sculpture and styles ranging from Abstract Expressionism to Realism. He was raised in a family where his mother ran a cafe near the Stockyards, and his father was a drunken, violent man. Jackson was often a truant from school and loved to wander around the Harding Museum looking at Frederic Remington bronzes or to hang out at his mother's cafe listening to stories from the cowboys who had brought their cattle by trains to the stockyards. A teacher noticed his art talent and got him a scholarship to the Chicago Art Institute's Saturday children's classes. At age 14, he ran away from home to Wyoming where he worked at a lumber company and on a ranch. He regarded these experiences as his spiritual awakening, and his art talents were reinforced by praise from his cowboy peers. In the late 1930s, he returned to Chicago and studied at the Frederick Mizen Academy, The Chicago Academy of Fine Arts, and The Chicago Art Institute. In 1942, he entered the Marine Corps and became close to a man who introduced him to the classics of literature. In 1943, at Tarawa, he had shrapnel head wounds that caused him epileptic seizures for most of the remainder of his life, and he also took two bullets to the leg at Saipan. He was then, at age 20, ordered back to the U.S. where he was appointed an Official Marine Corps Combat Artist, the youngest in Marine history. Following discharge, he worked as a radio actor and went to New York with the idea of meeting his hero, Jackson Pollock, whom in 1948 he found to be "a beautiful fantastic man." The two formed a lasting friendship, and Pollock introduced Jackson to Abstract Expressionism, which helped Jackson express his troubled background. Jackson married artist Grace Hartigan, his first of six wives, at Pollock's home with Pollock serving as best man. He also took classes at the Brooklyn Museum and studied with Rufino Tamayo and Hans Hofmann. The newlyweds went to Mexico and further explored abstraction, and a year later the couple divorced. Jackson did scenery painting for theatre and television, headed to Europe, and returned to New York where he did portrait painting and began to break away from Abstract Expressionism, something that met with disapproval from his peers. He had a Fulbright Travel Scholarship, did some heroic paintings in Denmark, and added sculpting to his repertoire, a medium inspired on March 4, 1958 when he arrived in Peitrasanta, Italy, where a new foundry gave him space. He remained in Italy for several years. In 1966, his entire output of western art was given the first one-man show at the new National Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City. By 1970, he was spending most of his time in Wyoming, becoming a resident of Cody, and was elected to the Cowboy Artists of America, but got "thrown out" because of his refusal to choose allegiances between it and the Cowboy Hall of Fame--entities that had had a major falling out.
Harry Andrew Jackson Bronze Cowboy Boot
Lot #868 (Sale Order 868 of 1502)
8" tall, 7 1/4" long, 3" wide. Unsigned Study Piece. Provenance: Harry Andrew Jackson Estate. Harry Andrew Jackson (1924 - 2011) was active/lived in Wyoming, Illinois. Harry Jackson is known for Sculpture-western figure, horses. Born with the name Harry Shapiro on the South Side of Chicago, Harry Jackson became a well-known 20th-century artists whose wide-ranging work includes painting and sculpture and styles ranging from Abstract Expressionism to Realism. He was raised in a family where his mother ran a cafe near the Stockyards, and his father was a drunken, violent man. Jackson was often a truant from school and loved to wander around the Harding Museum looking at Frederic Remington bronzes or to hang out at his mother's cafe listening to stories from the cowboys who had brought their cattle by trains to the stockyards. A teacher noticed his art talent and got him a scholarship to the Chicago Art Institute's Saturday children's classes. At age 14, he ran away from home to Wyoming where he worked at a lumber company and on a ranch. He regarded these experiences as his spiritual awakening, and his art talents were reinforced by praise from his cowboy peers. In the late 1930s, he returned to Chicago and studied at the Frederick Mizen Academy, The Chicago Academy of Fine Arts, and The Chicago Art Institute. In 1942, he entered the Marine Corps and became close to a man who introduced him to the classics of literature. In 1943, at Tarawa, he had shrapnel head wounds that caused him epileptic seizures for most of the remainder of his life, and he also took two bullets to the leg at Saipan. He was then, at age 20, ordered back to the U.S. where he was appointed an Official Marine Corps Combat Artist, the youngest in Marine history. Following discharge, he worked as a radio actor and went to New York with the idea of meeting his hero, Jackson Pollock, whom in 1948 he found to be "a beautiful fantastic man." The two formed a lasting friendship, and Pollock introduced Jackson to Abstract Expressionism, which helped Jackson express his troubled background.

Charles M Russell Montana Bighorn Sheep Bronze
Lot #875 (Sale Order 875 of 1502)
9" tall, 7 1/4" long, 6 1/8" wide. Charles Marion Russell (1864 - 1926) was active/lived in Montana, California, Missouri. Charles Russell is known for Indian-frontier genre painting, sculpture. Charles M. Russell, the nostalgic, held tight memories of a youthful past when the West belonged to God. There was a sense of loss, as poignant as losing a loved one. The specter of what this loss meant loomed over Russell the rest of his life. He was the quintessential nostalgic who grabbed history and married it to idealized memory and imagination. For example, despite Russell never witnessing a buffalo hunt, it became the basis for his most popular and desired art. Nancy Russell explained, "No man can be a painter without imagination." The Romantic art of the nineteenth century was the cornerstone to build the West reimagined for not only Russell, but also his contemporaries and future artists. No Western American artist fought back harder against racism, sexism, and championed environmentalism more than did Charles M. Russell. He thrived on imagining a time when the land was pristine, women were held in high regard, and people of color were the heroes. Paradoxically, the industrialized world championed just the opposite. To many, his life appeared odd—that cowboy hat, that sash, that unruly hair, that folksy talk. He and his art embraced an identity of an exile from a different place and time, which is even more appealing today. In that way, Russell was a visionary who instilled hope in all who saw his art, and his heart. For those reasons and much more, he is the most beloved of all the Western American artists. The Charles M. Russell Museum in Great Falls, Montana; the Charles M. Russell Center for the Study of Art of the American West at the University of Oklahoma in Norman; the Charles M. Russell Center Series on Art and Photography of the American West (books published by the University of Oklahoma University Press); the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge in Montana; the Russell Riders; and the Russell Skull Society are a testament to that fact. The Cowboy Artists of America have been called "The Sons of Charlie Russell" by art historian B. Byron Price for good reason. Russell was a legendary painter, sculptor, and author. Ever humble and self-effacing, as his fame skyrocketed, he never forgot his cowboy friends. The importance of his life and works is that no one has inspired more new generations of artists. Russell lived in the past and his wife Nancy who was his business manager lived for the future. How could a self-trained artist living in remote Montana become the highest paid artist in America? It’s quite a story. Charles Marion Russell was born on March 19, 1864 in St. Louis, Missouri, a bustling gateway to the West of some 200,000 people. Family history and adventure stories such as the Leatherstocking Tales by James Fenimore Cooper lured Russell to the West. On a crisp March day in 1880 Charles M. Russell jumped off the stagecoach in Helena, Montana Territory and took his turn as the latest easterner seeking western adventure. Accompanying him was Willis L.W. "Pike" Miller, a family acquaintance who acted as Russell’s guardian and gave him his first job in Montana on a sheep ranch Miller owned in the Judith Basin. While Miller was kind enough to chaperone Russell, they soon parted ways because Russell wanted nothing to do with sheepherding. For twelve years Russell and his horse Monte were together on the open range mainly nighthawking—somewhat of a lowly cowboy job of watching the horses overnight while the rest of the cowboys slept—until 1893 when Russell began transitioning from cowboy artist to full-time artist. Only a teenager, Russell was younger than most cowboys who were usually in their early twenties but shared with them the qualities of being gregarious, humble, energetic and adventuresome. Charlie saw the cowboy as the last frontiersman—unlike the colorless overburdened farmer and sheep herder. The period from 1906 to 1910 was one of the most productive and enjoyable times of Charlie’s life, which in no small part was due to the summers at Bull Head Lodge and the mentoring by others such as Philip R. Goodwin who visited him there in 1907 and 1910. Glacier National Park has the type of views that keep postcard publishers in business. The mountains fanned the flames of Charlie Russell’s creative genius. He understood that the mountains don’t need us, we need the mountains. Charlie’s favorite place in the world was the lodge, a log structure nestled among the cedar, fir, and tamarack along the shoreline of beautiful Lake McDonald. The years from 1911 to 1915 were a time of artistic achievement by Russell and promotion by Nancy who was as skilled as any field general with her well planned exhibitions in America, Canada, and England. It would be a grueling pace for the duo, but one that would yield a bountiful harvest of financial and critical success. The cowboy artist was "The We

Robert Deurloo began as a mining engineer in Wyoming, but twenty-five years ago he visited the Buffalo Bill Historical Center and was intrigued to try sculpting himself. A self-taught sculptor of wild animals, he is known for the distinctive patinas of his bronze which give the appearance of polished stone. He achieves this by heating the bronze until it glows after it is cast and then treating it with acids and minerals. He lives in a wilderness area near Salmon, Idaho, surrounded by mountains, forests and rivers inhabited by the animals that he sculpts. He has won numerous awards including "Best Sculpture" in the Collectors' Society in Minneapolis. In 1998, Smithsonian Institution personnel chose his bison sculpture, "Prairie Patriarch" for their permanent collection because it is an all-American symbol.
Bill Ohrmann Montana Polymer Clay Sculpture
Lot #878 (Sale Order 878 of 1502)
22" by 12" by 11". Title is Cool Water. One of a kind, as created before casting of the bronze. Bill Ohrmann (Born 1919) is active/lives in Montana. Bill Ohrmann is known for Painting and woodcarving. Born on a ranch just outside of the Western Montana town of Philipsburg, on January 2, 1919, Bill was the third of four children, and the only son, of August and Flora Ohrmann, who had moved to Montana from Owatona, Minnesota in 1912 or 13. The Ohrmanns raised registered Angus cattle in Philipsburg, but shortly after Bill's birth, the family was forced to sell out, and they moved to the Billings, Montana area, where August was a land classifier for the Federal Land Bank. By 1922, though, they were back in western Montana, again raising registered Angus. They first returned to Philipsburg, then to the Ovando area where Bill spent most of his early years. In 1934 they moved to a ranch south of Drummond, Montana, at which time Bill started high school in Drummond. In 1938, Bill lost both his parents. His mother died of cancer in May (Bill missed his high school graduation to attend the funeral) and his father died of emphysema in the fall. His two older sisters (Geraldine and Anita) had married by then, and Bill took over the operation of the ranch, assisted by his younger sister Marje. Bill was drafted in 1942, and served part of WW II in New Guinea. He achieved the rank of master tech sergeant, and worked on C-47 planes. While in the service, he began corresponding with Phyllis Sliter, a teacher in Wadena, Minnesota, who had come to Spokane to work for the summer, and had met Bill's younger sister Marje. In June of 1948, they were married. They waited a few years before starting a family, which grew to two daughters and a son (Susan, Jane and John). Bill and Phyll continued the family tradition of raising registered Angus cattle, building a reputation for good cattle throughout Montana, and always keeping an eye toward being good stewards of the land. As the children got old enough, they took part in the operation, driving tractors (at first with supervision) at the age of 5, learning how to handle cattle and horses, and learning how to conduct an agricultural operation in harmony with Mother Nature. Jane married first, in 1977, to Sandy Hultman, and had two children. Susan followed, marrying Randy Peterson in 1980. In 1985, Jane was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, and died in 1990. The rest of the family stepped in to help raise Jane's children (Callie and Ty), especially Susan and Phyllis. John worked with Bill on the ranch until 1996, at which time Susan and Randy leased the ranch from Bill and Phyll. They eventually bought the ranch in 2003. Bill and Phyll still live in the house Bill moved to at the age of 15, Susan and Randy live up the road a couple miles, John and his partner Myrlin Rasmussen live down the road a half mile, and Ty works on a ranch about 15 miles away. At an early age Bill started dabbling in art. The margins of his school work were full of doodles. His mother had an artistic bent, and encouraged all the children. Bill began doing simple wood carvings while in high school. Shortly after his parents died, he enrolled in a correspondence class, which was the only schooling Bill ever received in art. He did some water color and oil painting also. His wood carving techniques slowly matured, and by the late 60's he was exhibiting in some shows. In the early 70's he began pushing his artwork more seriously, entering shows in Great Falls, Spokane, Billings, etc. His work started getting noticed, and he began selling pieces. In 1973, Bill and Phyll added on to the house, and added a studio room. Although a very good representational painter, he always said there are a lot of good painters, and very few good wood carvers. Cottonwood was his preferred medium. He did common wildlife sculptures (bears, elk, buffalo, etc.), but his best pieces are what he calls allegorical. Depictions of the four winds or the four seasons, the twelve moons, or whimsical fantasies, are not what most people expect from a Montana rancher/artist. By the age of 77, the physical work of handling two hundred pound blocks of green cottonwood got to be a bit much, and Bill started doing more painting. This is also about the time Bill retired from ranching, and he had more time on his hands. Again, his paintings turned out to be different from what one would expect of a rancher. In his paintings, Bill decries all the environmental ills that humans have put upon the planet and wildlife. He started painting in earnest, and was soon putting out a couple dozen paintings a year. A group of forty of them toured the state for two years, appearing in the major art museums of the state. Since 1976, he has produced about 200 or so. In 2002, he and John built a museum on the family property to display the collection. Also at the age of 77, Bill started working with an entirely new medium, welded steel. He started with a standing, life

Robert M Cavanaugh Polar Impressions Bear Bronze

11 3/4" by 11 3/4" by 7 1/2". Title is Polar Impressions. Robert M. Cavanaugh (Born 1927) is active/lives in Montana. Robert Cavanaugh is known for Western genre, sculptor. Bob was born April 24, 1927, in the Black Hills of South Dakota. He spent his early years on ranches near the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, where his friends were the cowboys he worked with and the Sioux Indians living around him. During the Second World War, Bob served in the Pacific, Mediterranean, Atlantic and Caribbean, in the Merchant Marine. Bob has always had an interest in art, and his formal training began with a year of fine arts studies at Phoenix, Arizona. He later studied for three years at the Los Angeles Art Center School, majoring in advertising, illustration and design. During the years from 1953-1956, Bob served with the United States Army, and was stationed in Germany, where he took advantage of the opportunities to visit the galleries housing the classics of art. Following his army stint, Bob became a freelance writer of western fiction for the Whitman Publishing Company of Beverly Hills, California. Later, after ten years of design studios, advertising agencies, display firms, freelance studios, and aircraft graphic design work, Bob went to work in the editorial department of the Seattle Post Intelligencer. The newspaper position finally freed him from the pressures of advertising, and allowed him to pursue his fine art. In the fall of 1973, Bob moved his family to Kalispell, Montana to take advantage of the Flathead Valley's interest in fine art. Perhaps best known as a sculptor, Bob is equally adept with watercolor. His subjects range from wildlife to cowboys to coastal and plains Indians of the American Northwest.

A born and raised third generation Montanan, Western and Wildlife Sculptor, Jack W Muir resides on the beautiful shores of Flathead Lake, in the North West Corner of Montana, the setting for his home and studio. Wildlife and the mystique of the west abound in this part of Montana, both of which provide unlimited inspiration for Jack's work. After receiving a degree in Fine Art from Montana State University, Jack founded Kalispell Art Casting, established in 1978. Kalispell Art Casting is one of the largest and most respected art casting foundries in the west. Kalispell Art Casting sits on 2 acres with 20,000 square feet of floor space. Aside from casting his own art work, Jack casts for many prominent and well known artists including Sherry Salari Sander, Fred Fellows, Deborah Copenhaver Fellows, Bob Scriver and many other talented artists from across the United States and Canada. Kalispell Art Casting is known, not only for casting statuary bronzes of all sizes, the foundry is well known for the design, engineering, enlarging, casting, patination, delivery and installation of monumental sculptures. These monuments have been installed in noteable establishments across the country. These establishments include the Calagary Stampede grounds, the Boon and Crocket Club, the Parker Ranch in Hawaii, the Denver Zoo, the City of Olympia, Montana State University, State of Montana and several other locations. Jack's business association with many well known and respected artists for the past 35 years has been a tremendously rich education and influence in his own art work. Western, wildlife and equestrian are themes that prevail in Jack's work. However, subject matter is secondary to his main interest which is to focus on strong sculptural elements. Muir's sculptures exude emotion through subject matter and interest to the eye by use of composition, movement and texture. Jack's sculptures can be found in private collections throughout the United States, Canada and Europe and are available in fine art galleries across the country.

Earle Erik Heikka Scotty Cowboy Bronze
Lot #884 (Sale Order 884 of 1502)
13 1/2" by 12" by 6 3/8". Title is When I was a Kid Scotty. In 1963 Joe De Yong—Charles M. Russell's only protege—wrote a tribute to Earl E. Heikka, "What has received far less attention than deserved is the wholly untrained, yet artistically admirable quality of modeling that was produced in the all-too-short-lifetime of Earl Heikka of Great Falls." Heikka was born in Belt, Montana on May 3, 1910 to Finnish parents. When he was two years old, the family moved to Great Falls. He was only sixteen years-old when Charles Russell died, so it is uncertain how much time, if any, he observed Russell working in his studio in Great Falls. Like Russell, he learned a great deal about big game by hunting and packing. He also learned from spending time in Rumford’s Taxidermy Shop in Great Falls. Unfortunately, his most productive years were during the Great Depression when prices for all goods and services dropped dramatically. Spending on art for even the wealthy was greatly reduced until after WW II. Heikka worked with mainly water-based air drying clay known as Marblex and used solid wire armature anchored to a wooden base. Many of his models were then beautifully and finely painted before they were ready for sale. Best known for his pack train sculptures, often with a number of riders and horses that were designed for mantles in lodges, Heikka sculpted them as his tribute to Glacier National Park and the Rocky Mountains. His finest was Taking Up the Slack, and others included: Trophy Hunters, Bringing Home the Bacon, Sun River Packers, Hunter’s Return, Pack Train, Pack String, and Successful. He was also a master of predicament subjects such as Pursued. Heikka struggled for sales his entire shortened life. Like so many others during the brutal days of the Depression, he committed suicide on May 18, 1941 in Great Falls and left a young family behind. Only a number of years after he died were his models cast in bronze and his sculpting abilities better appreciated. Today, his sculptures are highly prized and collectible.
Joe Halko Montana Mountain Lion Bronze
Lot #885 (Sale Order 885 of 1502)
9 5/8" by 8 1/4" by 4 1/2". Title is Pursuit with Pride and Spirit . Joe Halko (1940 - 2009) was active/lived in Montana. Joe Halko is known for Wildlife sculpture, dioramist, landscape painting. Joe Halko grew up a student of nature of a ranch south of Great Falls, Montana. He learned the habits of the fox and the skunk, the crafty ways of the crows who nested in the same tree year after year, and whether the storm clouds held precious rain or dreaded hail. He built toy trucks and tractors out of leftovers from his father's shop and sculpted with clay out of the creek bank using ranch animals as models. He learned the basics of taxidermy from an uncle and so began his serious study of the anatomy of game birds and animals. Halko's first formal art education was Art Instruction, Inc. of Minneapolis, a correspondence course. After graduating from high school, he worked as a taxidermist in Great Falls and studied art at the University of Great Falls before he was drafted into the US Army. With that commitment complete, he took the train to New York to study art at the Fisk Studios and to work as a commercial artist for a Long Island advertising agency. He spent his free time there at the Museum of Natural History sketching the taxidermy mounts and the backgrounds. The school, work and big city museums were new and rewarding experiences, but the busy city was not where he wanted to be. He returned to Great Falls and earned his bachelor's degree in biology and chemistry - hoping for a career with the Forest Service or the Fish, Wildlife & Parks Department. Through all of this Halko had been studying painting and sculpting, and spending as much time as possible in the out of doors. As it turns out the taxidermy and the biology degree were solid preparations for Joe's career as a wildlife sculptor. His first serious sculptures were done as aids for painting - to study shadows, dimensions, and foreshortening. As he did more of these sculptures he found that he really enjoyed the sculpting, and it came easily for him. He continued his day work as a sought-after taxidermist doing sculpting on the side until 1976, when he turned to sculpting as his full-time occupation. He has been fortunate to have lived in Montana all of his life. He married Margaret also a Montana native in 1969, and they have two daughters who are now grown. There were many opportunities along the way to move to bigger cities and larger markets, to travel and participate in the so-called big time shows, but Halko wanted to live and to raise his family in the environment they all loved. They spent 17 years south of Cascade along the Missouri River where wildlife and bird life was abundant and much studied. In 1998 Joe and Margaret moved to Choteau, another beautiful spot in Montana. It is a picturesque Montana town along the east front of the Rocky Mountains with easy access to the rugged wilderness and numerous wildlife preserves.

Lot #888 (Sale Order 888 of 1502)
4" by 3 5/8" by 3 1/8". Title is Radar. Bob Wilfong (late 20th century) was active/lived in Washington. Bob Wilfong is known for Abstract figure sculpture. Bob Wilfong began his sculpting career in 1993 when he couldn't find a bronze penguin for Joh, his wife. Of this circumstance he said: "The impelling force that began my sculpting was the love for my wife and the desire to make bronze penguins for her collection. Prior to that time, I had never shown any artistic talent, nor inclination. In fact, when I did an art show in my home town, my elementary music teacher informed me that I had previously kept my talent "well hidden". Only recently have I begun drawing and painting and I never draw my sculptural ideas. These are completely visualized and come from within. I feel this is what gives them their essence. As I became more aware of my talent and as I developed my technique, my desire became to explore the breadth of my abilities. I feel my art is a form of sympathetic communication through which my feelings are transferred to the viewer for their own interpretation." Although it seems strange for a banker to become a sculptor, his background supported his new venture. Graduating from the University of Idaho with a degree in biology, Bob had a strong background in anatomy, and more importantly, an appreciation for the beauty of life. Drafted into the military after graduation Bob continued his inquiry into the "essence of life" as a medical researcher and was published a number of times. More importantly he developed technical skills, which would later become elemental in bringing clay to life. Bob's original works were all animals as he sought to understand his creative gift with reproducing creatures he knew best. Bob's new work explores the consciousness of man and his relationship to his surroundings. Bob feels that art in all its forms should move people to a higher level of consciousness and give them pride and understanding in who and what they are. It is the responsibility of the artist to create original and stimulating artwork to act as the catalyst.

Carl Wagner Obituary from the Denver Post, 8/13/2011 Carl Wagner, sculptor of thousands of bronze animals and birds, died July 5 in Naples, Fla., from complications following heart surgery. He was 72. Service arrangements are pending, said his son, Rodd Wagner of Salida. Wagner sculpted and cast limited-edition bronzes at what he called his Hurricane Hill Art Works, 5 miles west of Salida. He chose the name because of the winds, said his daughter, Tracy Beach, also of Salida. Wagner came to Colorado in the 1970s with the aim of opening his own foundry. He did that and then started doing his own art. "He just switched gears when he moved to Colorado," said Rodd Wagner. "He thought originally of making something to sell; he had never been to art school." But Wagner’s work has been shown around the country, and for decades he and his wife, Barbara, traveled in a van to art festivals, his son said. Carl Wagner’s work ranged from thimbles and 6-inch-high bronze mugs, or steins, to life-size buffalo, eagles and other birds. Two mugs wound up in the hands of Ronald Reagan when he was president. One of Wagner’s customers sent them to the president, and Reagan later sent him a note and a medal. Wagner did many commissioned pieces, all eagle statues, for American Airlines, Anheuser-Busch and the Federal Reserve Bank. The companies used them for awards. His works are in several parks. Wagner worked in a 5,000-square-foot foundry he built near his house outside Salida. "He designed and built all his own machinery," said his daughter. The work "was very labor intensive" said his son.

Bill Ohrmann Montana Mule Deer Wood Carving
Lot #896 (Sale Order 896 of 1502)
14 1/8" by 11 7/8" by 7 1/8". Bill Ohrmann (Born 1919) is active/lives in Montana. Bill Ohrmann is known for Painting and woodcarving. Born on a ranch just outside of the Western Montana town of Philipsburg, on January 2, 1919, Bill was the third of four children, and the only son, of August and Flora Ohrmann, who had moved to Montana from Owatona, Minnesota in 1912 or 13. The Ohrmanns raised registered Angus cattle in Philipsburg, but shortly after Bill's birth, the family was forced to sell out, and they moved to the Billings, Montana area, where August was a land classifier for the Federal Land Bank. By 1922, though, they were back in western Montana, again raising registered Angus. They first returned to Philipsburg, then to the Ovando area where Bill spent most of his early years. In 1934 they moved to a ranch south of Drummond, Montana, at which time Bill started high school in Drummond. In 1938, Bill lost both his parents. His mother died of cancer in May (Bill missed his high school graduation to attend the funeral) and his father died of emphysema in the fall. His two older sisters (Geraldine and Anita) had married by then, and Bill took over the operation of the ranch, assisted by his younger sister Marje. Bill was drafted in 1942, and served part of WW II in New Guinea. He achieved the rank of master tech sergeant, and worked on C-47 planes. While in the service, he began corresponding with Phyllis Sliter, a teacher in Wadena, Minnesota, who had come to Spokane to work for the summer, and had met Bill's younger sister Marje. In June of 1948, they were married. They waited a few years before starting a family, which grew to two daughters and a son (Susan, Jane and John). Bill and Phyll continued the family tradition of raising registered Angus cattle, building a reputation for good cattle throughout Montana, and always keeping an eye toward being good stewards of the land. As the children got old enough, they took part in the operation, driving tractors (at first with supervision) at the age of 5, learning how to handle cattle and horses, and learning how to conduct an agricultural operation in harmony with Mother Nature. Jane married first, in 1977, to Sandy Hultman, and had two children. Susan followed, marrying Randy Peterson in 1980. In 1985, Jane was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, and died in 1990. The rest of the family stepped in to help raise Jane's children (Callie and Ty), especially Susan and Phyllis. John worked with Bill on the ranch until 1996, at which time Susan and Randy leased the ranch from Bill and Phyll. They eventually bought the ranch in 2003. Bill and Phyll still live in the house Bill moved to at the age of 15, Susan and Randy live up the road a couple miles, John and his partner Myrlin Rasmussen live down the road a half mile, and Ty works on a ranch about 15 miles away. At an early age Bill started dabbling in art. The margins of his school work were full of doodles. His mother had an artistic bent, and encouraged all the children. Bill began doing simple wood carvings while in high school. Shortly after his parents died, he enrolled in a correspondence class, which was the only schooling Bill ever received in art. He did some water color and oil painting also. His wood carving techniques slowly matured, and by the late 60's he was exhibiting in some shows. In the early 70's he began pushing his artwork more seriously, entering shows in Great Falls, Spokane, Billings, etc. His work started getting noticed, and he began selling pieces. In 1973, Bill and Phyll added on to the house, and added a studio room. Although a very good representational painter, he always said there are a lot of good painters, and very few good wood carvers. Cottonwood was his preferred medium. He did common wildlife sculptures (bears, elk, buffalo, etc.), but his best pieces are what he calls allegorical. Depictions of the four winds or the four seasons, the twelve moons, or whimsical fantasies, are not what most people expect from a Montana rancher/artist. By the age of 77, the physical work of handling two hundred pound blocks of green cottonwood got to be a bit much, and Bill started doing more painting. This is also about the time Bill retired from ranching, and he had more time on his hands. Again, his paintings turned out to be different from what one would expect of a rancher. In his paintings, Bill decries all the environmental ills that humans have put upon the planet and wildlife. He started painting in earnest, and was soon putting out a couple dozen paintings a year. A group of forty of them toured the state for two years, appearing in the major art museums of the state. Since 1976, he has produced about 200 or so.

Lot #912 (Sale Order 916 of 1502)
Oil on Canvas. 16" by 20" unframed, 22 3/4" by 26 3/4" framed. Title is 8 Seconds to Glory. Tucker Smith (Born 1940) is active/lives in Wyoming, Montana. Tucker Smith is known for Wildlife in landscape painting, western scene. Tucker Smith spent his early years outside of St. Paul, Minnesota. When he was 12 years old his family relocated to Pinedale, Wyoming at the foot of the Wind River Range. As a child, his artistic skill was already evident, although his family viewed art simply as an avocation. After graduation from college Tucker Smith spent the following eight years as a computer programmer and systems analyst for the State of Montana, painting on a part time basis. He eventually realized that art was his true passion in life and he became a full time professional artist at the age of 31. Today, Tucker Smith is nationally renowned for his balanced, subtle paintings inspired by the wildlife and mountain atmosphere that has been such an integral part of his life. His home and studio on the Hoback Rim in Western Wyoming offer direct access to his favorite subjects; vast landscapes, sprawling cattle ranches, and the back country with its abundant wildlife and natural, unspoiled beauty. Tucker notes, "I just recently returned with some friends from a week long horse pack trip into the Wind River Mountains where we painted, photographed and explored. I believe it is necessary to experience nature first hand in order to be able to convey it to someone else through a painting". He adds, "When doing an animal painting, my first consideration is the setting. It is the particular environment that made the animal. The relationship between the two is of great interest to me".

Sheryl Bodily Stagecoach Oil on Canvas Painting
Lot #913 (Sale Order 917 of 1502)
Title is Afternoon Stage. 9" by 12" unframed, 17 1/2" by 20 1/2" framed. Sheryl L. Bodily (Born 1936) is active/lives in Montana, Idaho. Sheryl Bodily is known for Western frontier scene painting, wildlife, horses. A western wildlife and landscape artist, Sheryl Bodily is a resident of Montana. He was the winner of the 1986 Ellensburg Washington Rodeo Association Poster Award, and recently received Best of Show/Flatwork at the Florence Festival Art Auction in Florence, Montana. Favorite subjects rendered in oil and pencil include Indian scenes with children, old cabins, wagon trains and wildlife. He is widely exhibited in Sante Fe and Taos, New Mexico, Sedona, Arizona and Idaho. In the fall of 1970, an art auction was held through the Pacific Northwest Indian Center in Spokane, Washington. To that auction a young man named Sheryl Bodily, from Columbia Falls, Montana, brought a few of his oil paintings. A good deal of excitement was caused by the fact that Mr. Bodily's paintings were sold at auction for twice their listed value. A few months later the performance was repeated at another art auction in Great Falls, Montana, and suddenly an artist who had been painting professionally for 12 years, two of them full time, was discovered. Suddenly a man who had had to work hard to sell his work, found himself with more advance commissions than he could readily complete. Western artist Sheryl Bodily was born in Boise, Idaho, on April 20, 1936, the second oldest in a family with one brother and four sisters. Mr. Bodily's father was a farmer in the Boise Valley, and he remembers six moves to different farms in that region. He described his father as the breadwinner and his mother as the counselor and teacher in his early years. "I remember milking eight to fifteen cows which was always my chore at home, but my real interest at that time was the hobby of collecting arrowheads and other artifacts in Rocky Canyon with my younger brother near Meridian, Idaho." His enthusiastic interest in Indian people and their contemporary culture has continued to grow over the years and has had a tremendous influence on his art. Mr. Bodily first remembers drawing in the first grade of the Meridian Idaho Grade School, and being told at that time by his teacher that someday he would become an artist. The artist laughingly suggested that, "it took nearly thirty years to prove her right." Mr. Bodily began oil painting at 14, and oil has been his primary medium since that time. He has also completed a number of works in pen and ink, but at present works almost entirely in oils. "I would like to do more pen and inks, but I´m so busy now with oils that I really can't find the time." After completing high school, Mr. Bodily studied commercial art for two years at Brigham Young University in Utah. He found during those two years that commercial art held little interest for him as a lifetime pursuit and at the end of two years he accepted a call to serve a two and one half year mission for his church to the Spanish speaking peoples of Texas and New Mexico. During this period, and shortly afterward, he traveled extensively in the southwest and expanded his interest in contemporary and historical Indian culture to include those of the southwest. Those years influenced his art and this influence can occasionally be noted in the rich colors used in the countryside depicted in some of his works.
Verne Tossey Cowboy Oil on Board Painting
Lot #914 (Sale Order 918 of 1502)
Title is Jack Reish Top Hand. 11" by 14" unframed, 15 3/4" by 18 7/8" framed. Verne Tossey (1920 - 2002) was active/lived in Oregon. Verne Tossey is known for Genre-figure, super real western. Verne Tossey's art career began as a student at the Art Students' League in New York under Frank J. Riley, as an apprentice in a New York City commercial art studio, and then as an historical and Western Illustrator which laid the foundation of his realistic depiction of the rugged cowboys, young and old, the various Indian tribes, the horses and the western dress. His wife Mary, a Wyoming rancher's daughter, helped Verne to really see the West and understand its ways. Verne's work is a window into the "real" America. He once told me "What I'm trying to say is my paintings dispense with much that has become superficial and shows that part of us which made America what it is today." Verne was a charter member of the "Northwest Rendezvous," a prestigious group of Western and Wildlife artists, in addition, his work is in the permanent collection of many museums including the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., as well as corporate and private collections and he was the recipient of numerous art awards.

Title is Crow Chief. Oil on canvas laid on board. 18 1/2" by 22 7/8" framed. William Foster Reese (1938 - 2010) was active/lived in Washington. William Reese is known for Figure, still life, animal, and landscape painting. A painter of western genre, William Reese was raised on his family's cattle ranch in central Washington state and from that time had a love of horses, which is obvious in many of his western paintings. He also painted landscape, still life and marine scenes. Reese was educated at the Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles and at Washington State University, Pullman. His grandmother gave him his first art lessons, using a text book by Charles Lederer, Drawing Made Easy. Of that book, Reese said: "I still have it, or what's left of it. I devoured that book." Although oil was his primary medium, Reese also worked with watercolor, pastel, sculpture, etching and lithography, and found he learned something from each one. Suffering from lung disease, Reese nearly died at age 31, but refusing to give in, determined to live his dreams of painting and traveling and playing the guitar, something he did several hours each day. In 1971, he set up his studio in Washington and also began giving private lessons. The next year, he had his first major exhibition, which was at the Frye Art Museum in Seattle.

At age 15, he apprenticed to a house painter, and at age 20, moved to London and assisted portrait and marine artist George Johansen. In 1901, he arrived in San Francisco from Sweden, having jumped ship as a seaman on the "S.S. Arizonan." He walked the rail track to Los Angeles, and learned painting techniques from William Wendt, well-known landscape artist. Sponsored by Phoebe Hearst, mother of newspaper tycoon William Randolph Hearst, Borg studied art in Paris and Rome, and with Hearst's encouragement, also painted Indian portraits. He then taught at the California Art Institute in Los Angeles, spent six months in Honduras, and from 1918-24, was an instructor at the School of Arts in Santa Barbara. From 1924-1935, he was in California and Arizona doing commissioned paintings of Southwest Indian tribal ceremonies for Hearst and also did Grand Canyon landscapes. He traveled in the country when war broke out and was forced to spend World War II in Sweden where his desert and Indian portraits became much sought after.

Barbara East Watercolor Painting of Cowboys
Lot #922 (Sale Order 926 of 1502)
6 7/8" by 8 3/8" framed. Barbara East (Born 1950) was active/lived in Colorado. Barbara East is known for Miniature western scene painting, Americana, landscape scene murals. Examine a painting and it will reveal the essence of the artist. Barbara East is an artist, a cowgirl, a keeper of the land. Her life philosophy and beliefs shine through her art with every brush stroke. Horses, ranching and tough work have always been a part of her life. In summer months, Barb East manages cattle grazing in the high country, where she is also the keeper of the range with an ever watchful eye for "something not right" on the job and an equally watchful eye for something remarkable enough to paint. The life East leads is the inspiration behind every painting, her life as a cowgirl and an artist inseparable. Barbara’s obsession with horses and drawing began at age 2 1/2 . With perseverance, determination and grit she pursued her goal of being a professional artist. Livestock and range management is also an art and a second career which just naturally fell into place. Fascinated with the world in miniature, Barb East became renowned for her intricate watercolors on cigarette papers, and larger works in egg tempera. Her recent focus has turned to large pieces commemorating the histories of family ranches, agricultural organizations or life careers. "Beneath the central theme lies an intricately drawn collage of events, traveling through time, unraveling the history of something very special." Barbara East refers to the commemorative pieces as "accomplishing something meaningful, something that has a sense of purpose." "My connection with the land defines my work. In my lifetime I have experienced a way of life that is fast disappearing, and it is my hope to capture this lifestyle, the interactions and expressions of the animals, the character and the culture of the people who work the range and most importantly, the moods of the land; those completely quiet times when the light of the sun touches the shape of the land, how it defines the landscape differently, ever changing- like life itself- with every cloud that passes by." Since the beginning of her professional art career in 1972, Barbara East has participated in too many exhibits across the west to mention. Among the most notable: Two-time winner of the CM Russell Auction, BEST OF SHOW / Great Falls, MT Two-time winner of The Museum of Native American Cultures Auction, BEST OF SHOW / Spokane, WA Participant of Texas Art’s PREVIEW Invitational shows, Dallas TX

Arlene Hooker Fay was born in Great Falls on Nov. 21, 1933, to William and Esther Hooker. She lived her first five years on a farm outside Highwood, before moving to Great Falls. Arlene contracted polio in August, 1948, just before her sophomore year and was confined to a wheelchair ever since. She graduated from Great Falls High School in 1951, taking classes on the first floor, as there was no elevator. She worked as a medical secretary for a year and for two years as a secretary with the child welfare division of the Cascade County Welfare office, while painting portraits evenings and weekends. Arlene married Thomas M. Fay on Sept. 17, 1955, while he was stationed in Montana serving in the Air Force. He was transferred to Sacramento for a year and a half after which they returned to Montana. After the birth of their second child, they moved to Bozeman where they lived for four years while Tom went to college. She took on various jobs (baby-sitting, telephone solicitation, sewing and alterations, and painting children's portraits.) Their third child was born in Cut Bank where they lived for two years while Tom taught high school in Browning. Then they moved into Browning for two years and to Conrad for three years, where she continued her painting, wrote a weekly article for the newspaper, and gave piano lessons. Tom taught for a year in Jordan and then worked for Consolidated Freightways in Great Falls from 1971 until his retirement in 1995. During that time Arlene's art career progressed and she has had many articles in the Tribune, other Montana newspapers and national art magazines. Unable to volunteer in the community, she donated much art to be sold for various charities including BASH (Building a Scholastic Heritage) for the College of Great Falls, the Gift of Life, Big Brothers and Sisters, St. Thomas Children's Home, the C.M. Russell Museum, the Ad Club for their scholarship program and food bank drive, and which helped get the Crimestoppers program started in Montana. Her paintings always made near top dollar at various auctions in the Northwest as did her quick draws. She won "Best of Show" awards at every major Northwest auction, including the C.M. Russell Auction which she exhibited in every year except the first year. A review in Southwest Art magazine of a book published on all the art auctions in the Northwest said it was obvious that A. Hooker Fay, Ace Powell and C.M. Russell were the artists most accepted into the Northwest auctions.
Joe Halko Montana Canadian Geese Drawing
Lot #925 (Sale Order 929 of 1502)
Title is In the Shadows. 14" by 20 3/4" framed. Joe Halko (1940 - 2009) was active/lived in Montana. Joe Halko is known for Wildlife sculpture, dioramist, landscape painting. Joe Halko grew up a student of nature of a ranch south of Great Falls, Montana. He learned the habits of the fox and the skunk, the crafty ways of the crows who nested in the same tree year after year, and whether the storm clouds held precious rain or dreaded hail. He built toy trucks and tractors out of leftovers from his father's shop and sculpted with clay out of the creek bank using ranch animals as models. He learned the basics of taxidermy from an uncle and so began his serious study of the anatomy of game birds and animals. Halko's first formal art education was Art Instruction, Inc. of Minneapolis, a correspondence course. After graduating from high school, he worked as a taxidermist in Great Falls and studied art at the University of Great Falls before he was drafted into the US Army. With that commitment complete, he took the train to New York to study art at the Fisk Studios and to work as a commercial artist for a Long Island advertising agency. He spent his free time there at the Museum of Natural History sketching the taxidermy mounts and the backgrounds. The school, work and big city museums were new and rewarding experiences, but the busy city was not where he wanted to be. He returned to Great Falls and earned his bachelor's degree in biology and chemistry - hoping for a career with the Forest Service or the Fish, Wildlife & Parks Department. Through all of this Halko had been studying painting and sculpting, and spending as much time as possible in the out of doors. As it turns out the taxidermy and the biology degree were solid preparations for Joe's career as a wildlife sculptor. His first serious sculptures were done as aids for painting - to study shadows, dimensions, and foreshortening. As he did more of these sculptures he found that he really enjoyed the sculpting, and it came easily for him. He continued his day work as a sought-after taxidermist doing sculpting on the side until 1976, when he turned to sculpting as his full-time occupation. He has been fortunate to have lived in Montana all of his life. He married Margaret also a Montana native in 1969, and they have two daughters who are now grown. There were many opportunities along the way to move to bigger cities and larger markets, to travel and participate in the so-called big time shows, but Halko wanted to live and to raise his family in the environment they all loved. They spent 17 years south of Cascade along the Missouri River where wildlife and bird life was abundant and much studied. In 1998 Joe and Margaret moved to Choteau, another beautiful spot in Montana. It is a picturesque Montana town along the east front of the Rocky Mountains with easy access to the rugged wilderness and numerous wildlife preserves.

Lot #928 (Sale Order 932 of 1502)
Title is Ride to Town. 12" by 16" unframed, 15 1/2" by 19 1/2" framed. Sheryl L. Bodily (Born 1936) is active/lives in Montana, Idaho. Sheryl Bodily is known for Western frontier scene painting, wildlife, horses. A western wildlife and landscape artist, Sheryl Bodily is a resident of Montana. He was the winner of the 1986 Ellensburg Washington Rodeo Association Poster Award, and recently received Best of Show/Flatwork at the Florence Festival Art Auction in Florence, Montana. Favorite subjects rendered in oil and pencil include Indian scenes with children, old cabins, wagon trains and wildlife. He is widely exhibited in Sante Fe and Taos, New Mexico, Sedona, Arizona and Idaho. In the fall of 1970, an art auction was held through the Pacific Northwest Indian Center in Spokane, Washington. To that auction a young man named Sheryl Bodily, from Columbia Falls, Montana, brought a few of his oil paintings. A good deal of excitement was caused by the fact that Mr. Bodily's paintings were sold at auction for twice their listed value. A few months later the performance was repeated at another art auction in Great Falls, Montana, and suddenly an artist who had been painting professionally for 12 years, two of them full time, was discovered. Suddenly a man who had had to work hard to sell his work, found himself with more advance commissions than he could readily complete. Western artist Sheryl Bodily was born in Boise, Idaho, on April 20, 1936, the second oldest in a family with one brother and four sisters. Mr. Bodily's father was a farmer in the Boise Valley, and he remembers six moves to different farms in that region. He described his father as the breadwinner and his mother as the counselor and teacher in his early years. "I remember milking eight to fifteen cows which was always my chore at home, but my real interest at that time was the hobby of collecting arrowheads and other artifacts in Rocky Canyon with my younger brother near Meridian, Idaho." His enthusiastic interest in Indian people and their contemporary culture has continued to grow over the years and has had a tremendous influence on his art. Mr. Bodily first remembers drawing in the first grade of the Meridian Idaho Grade School, and being told at that time by his teacher that someday he would become an artist. The artist laughingly suggested that, "it took nearly thirty years to prove her right." Mr. Bodily began oil painting at 14, and oil has been his primary medium since that time. He has also completed a number of works in pen and ink, but at present works almost entirely in oils. "I would like to do more pen and inks, but I´m so busy now with oils that I really can't find the time." After completing high school, Mr. Bodily studied commercial art for two years at Brigham Young University in Utah. He found during those two years that commercial art held little interest for him as a lifetime pursuit and at the end of two years he accepted a call to serve a two and one half year mission for his church to the Spanish speaking peoples of Texas and New Mexico. During this period, and shortly afterward, he traveled extensively in the southwest and expanded his interest in contemporary and historical Indian culture to include those of the southwest. Those years influenced his art and this influence can occasionally be noted in the rich colors used in the countryside depicted in some of his works.

Lot #929 (Sale Order 933 of 1502)
19" by 23" framed. Verne Tossey (1920 - 2002) was active/lived in Oregon. Verne Tossey is known for Genre-figure, super real western. Verne Tossey's art career began as a student at the Art Students' League in New York under Frank J. Riley, as an apprentice in a New York City commercial art studio, and then as an historical and Western Illustrator which laid the foundation of his realistic depiction of the rugged cowboys, young and old, the various Indian tribes, the horses and the western dress. His wife Mary, a Wyoming rancher's daughter, helped Verne to really see the West and understand its ways. Verne's work is a window into the "real" America. He once told me "What I'm trying to say is my paintings dispense with much that has become superficial and shows that part of us which made America what it is today." Verne was a charter member of the "Northwest Rendezvous," a prestigious group of Western and Wildlife artists, in addition, his work is in the permanent collection of many museums including the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., as well as corporate and private collections and he was the recipient of numerous art awards.

He has had numerous shows throughout Montana both individually and with groups. He has taught workshops, classes and has mentored other aspiring artists. His influence has inspired artists both in pastel and oil. Jerry is currently a member of the Stillwater Society, and the Montana Painters Alliance.

The Montana Painters Alliance is a group of Montana artists that get together twice a year to paint on location at various places in Montana.

Gary Carter is known for Western frontier genre and landscape painting. Born in Hutchinson, Kansas, Gary Carter is a realist painter and sculptor of the contemporary and historic American West including cowboy's, mountain men, Indians and the landscape where they live or lived. Many of his childhood trips were with his father backpacking in the Sierra Mountains of California. He served in the Army, and then earned a BFA degree with honors from the Art Center College of Design* in Los Angeles. He had moved to California with his family when his father took a job with Walt Disney productions. From 1971-1972, he was the in-house illustrator for a California design studio, but a sell-out show in 1973 of his own art persuaded him to become a full-time painter. In 1978, he won Best of Show at a Montana Historical Society exhibition. He paints the landscape and wild animals of a remote area of Montana where he lives with his wife, Marlys, near the West Entrance of Yellowstone Park. His former bunkhouse studio, where he acquired much insight into the life of the cowboy, is several miles from his home at Sun Ranch. In 1982, Gary Carter was elected to membership of the Cowboy Artists of America*, and in 1986, served as President. In CAA annual exhibitions, he received a Gold award for Drawing and Other Media in 1990 and 1997. In 1991, he was adopted by the Crow Tribe and the Real Bird Family, and, made a member of the Big Lodge Clan, given an Indian name of "Eagle Man." This adoption occurred at a Pow-Wow on the Crow reservation at Medicine Tail Coulee near Hardin, Montana, at a redesignation of the Little Horn Battlefield.
Leonard Reedy Montana Rockies Watercolor Painting
Lot #946 (Sale Order 950 of 1502)
14 1/4" by 17" framed. Leonard Howard Reedy (1899 - 1956) was active/lived in Illinois. Leonard Reedy is known for Western theme painting. Leonard Reedy was a landscape and figure painter, born in Chicago, Illinois, April 24, 1899. He studied at the Chicago Institute and Academy of Fine Arts as well as self-taught. At the age of ten he demonstrated an unusual aptness and fondness for drawing and painting and chose to manifest this talent by illustrating the margins of his schoolbooks with his heroes of the west: Indians, cowpunchers, and bandits. He was a great admirer of Frederick Remington whose portrayal of the West and Frontier Days will forever be appreciated and cherished as historically preserving the early pioneering, indomitable spirit and tradition of a great bygone era in American History. Like Remington, Reedy lived in the 'Great Open Spaces' and was at home on the Great Plains, the desert country, mountains, as well as mining and timber camps. He worked as a ranch hand. He roamed with the Indians. Over a period of many years, he gained a bountiful knowledge of western life and of the subjects he loved to portray. No doubt his great love and admiration for the early rough and rugged West of long ago decided for him what to paint. He preserved and described action which showed characters true to their habits and period; Frontier days of the plainsman; sagebrush; cactus and mesquite; The Gold rush; frontier towns; the stage coach; the hold up; the covered wagon; Buffalo Bill and the scouts; Soldiers and Indian warfare; the western trek of the home-seeker, fraught with constant danger; war-painted Indians on the warpath; the attack; bleached bones on the prairie; the tireless search for gold; all preserved the outstanding incidents of the pioneer days, the hardships and struggles during a most important epoch of our nation's history.
Jay Rummel Missoula Montana Lukes Bar Poster
Lot #947 (Sale Order 951 of 1502)
Luke's Bar Talent Contest. 16 1/4" by 22 1/8" framed. A Missoula artist, Rummel was known for his love of Native American and pioneer storytelling, the paintings of Charlie Russell, 1960's psychedelia, folk music and modern art. The Five Valleys Trilogy is one of his most significant works. Three panels are titled, from left to right: Road to the Buffalo, When First Unto this Country, and Lady from Missoula County. MAM's prints are from an edition of photolithographs derived from the original large-scale paintings that Rummel created between 1981-1983 with assistance from Doug Grimm. The paintings were commissioned originally for the Top Hat Bar and are on long-term loan to the University of Montana. The Road to the Buffalo is translated from the Nez Perce name for the Blackfoot River corridor, Cokahlah-ishkit. Local tribes used the foot trail to cross the Continental Divide into the Rocky Mountain Front. Lewis & Clark used the trail in 1806, followed by the Big Blackfoot Railroad, which in the early 1900s transported lumber to the Anaconda mill in Bonner. More recently, conservation efforts have helped the Road to the Buffalo recover from industrial pollution to host excellent fishing and biking trails. When First Unto this Country depicts the landscape and Native American culture that flourished for 10,000 years before Europeans arrived. Lady from Missoula County is the contemporary local art and music scene that Rummel knew well. The print features Missoula most well-known downtown watering holes, local musicians like the Snake River Outlaws, and a crew of Eddie's Club regulars -- including Rummel and Lee Nye, the bartender-photographer who so famously documented the bar's patrons.

Uniting her appreciation of nature and beauty with her ability as an artist, Jean has developed a unique style of painting that has won her signature membership in the American Watercolor Society, Midwest Watercolor Society and an honorary signature member of the Montana Watercolor Society. She has had the distinction of having a painting accepted into the National Academy of Design juried show. Art is a way of life for Jean, and its importance to her is summed up in this comment she makes: "Although reality is most often spoken in terms of the negative aspects of life, beauty and goodness are just as much a part of reality. Art in its highest level in all its creative forms provides us with beauty and balance. Therefore, art is nourishing, enriching and enhances the quality of all our lives."

Tony Sandoval Montana Buffalo Hunt Painting
Lot #969 (Sale Order 973 of 1502)
Oil on Board. 14" by 18" unframed, 22" by 26 1/8" framed. Tony Sandoval (20th Century) is known for Painting. Tony is a Native Veteran of the Armed Forces and did overseas deployment in Japan. His most favorite stories of that time were all the tricks and jokes Tony played on his group of civilian Japanese worker pals. After his discharge he returned to Dinetah (Torreon/Cuba) and the Santa Fe area, where he re-joined his friends and relatives. Anyone who knows Tony knows his admiration for Charlie Russell, his love for wildlife, and his love for his Dine Ancestors and old folks. All of these and other spiritual icons played immense parts in his well known Vision paintings, worked in a version of grisaille technique that he made his own. Tony’s first trip into Montana was his and his infant son's introduction into the Big Sky. The Charlie Russell Museum in Great Falls, Montana, and the Center of the West in Cody Wyoming were highly favored places to see actual Russell paintings. It wasn’t unusual for him to spend hours studying the work of his hero. From 1973 into the 2000's Tony's other favorite hangout was the National Bison Range in Montana. For a period of time he lived with his own family across the highway from the Buffalo. Quite often he would study the buffalo and elk through binoculars. Visits with his New Mexico family to see his parents and siblings, offered opportunities to see his own Dine’ Elders and Medicine people. He painted book illustrations of the Bitterroot Salish's discovery of Lewis and Clark for the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes. He even taught art at Two Eagle River School when it was located at the Old Agency in Dixon in the 1970s. Tony was well known for his style of work and gained a great deal of acclaim for the depth and breadth of subject matter. He participated in numerous art shows and galleries nationwide and overseas. A favorite art show challenge he was quite fond of was the Quick Draw, a timed event where several artists would vie for best and most finished portrayal. He often gathered a large and vocal group of by standers intently watching his painterly magic.
