"Spring Training" by noted Cowboy Artist Bill Anton depicting cowboys branding with a herd in the background. Numbered 87/100 signed lower right. Image measures 22 1/4"x16 1/2" in double mat ready to frame. Bill Anton became a western painter, especially of the lifestyle of cowboys. He first traveled West at age seven. He attended Loyola University in Chicago and then transferred to Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, Arizona, majoring in English. He settled in Arizona, and his wife, Peggy, supported him while he established his career as an artist. Bill Anton paints and draws today's working cowboy. Inspired by the work of Anders Zorn, Sorolla, Edgar Payne and Frank Tenney Johnson, Bill works from field studies whenever possible to achieve the vitality photos cannot match. Working primarily in oil, he can always be found in one of three places - the studio, a ranch or painting outdoors. Bill Anton's work is in corporate collections including those of Sears, Dupont, State Farm Insurance, Bank of America, Hewlett Packard and Trust Company of the West.
