Nelson Boren b. 1952 Done For The Day Watercolor
This is a large original watercolor painting by Nelson Boren titled, “Done for the Day”. Nelson Boren, an American artist born in 1952, was originally from Tempe, Arizona and started his life as an accomplished architect. In 1980 he moved with his family to Northern Idaho and his art career began with his works being in many private collections and the Whitney Museum of Western Art in Cody, Wyoming, the Coca Cola Company and the Dallas Cowboys NFL team. This work shows a Cowboy in brightly colored western shirt holding his worn cowboy hat with richly patinaed leather working gloves, a set of batwing chaps, a bright handkerchief hanging from his pocket and his working saddle on his hip. The original work of art is signed in the lower left corner and is nicely framed. Provenance: From the prominent Ex-art collection of Edward Bazinet, the founder of Department 56, the piece was proudly displayed at his 5-Bar-6 Ranch in Paradise Valley Pray, Montana where a portion of the movie, A River Runs Through It was filmed. The work is in very good well-preserved condition. Frame is 68 inches by 48 ½ inches. Visible Art area measures 63 inches by 43 inches. Some of Nelson Boren’s works have recently sold at auction in excess of $20,000.
