This series of artworks tell the story of the cowboys' life
duringthe late 19th century from the days of the open range,drivinglonghorns up from Texas which was very short, to the timewhen barbed wire made the scene. Ranch owners hated it but was needed to control their breeding stock that was imported from England and Europe. Each piece of art relates to one facet of that life and Tex has captured the spirit with an engaging style,
a bit of nostalgia and his brand of humor.
