Gordon Snidow, a realist painter known for creating contemporary cowboy scenes in opaque watercolor, was born in Paris, Missouri in 1936 and now resides in Ruidoso, New Mexico. He credits early influences from art shows since second grade and formal training at the Famous Artists School and Art Center School in Los Angeles. After selling his first Western painting in Tulsa, he pursued commercial art in Albuquerque before joining the Cowboy Artists of America in 1965. By 1971, Snidow dedicated himself full-time to painting, reflecting a philosophical approach akin to Rembrandt's focus on portraying the people of his era. His accolades include seven gold and seven silver medals at CAA shows, along with multiple Popular Choice and Best of Show awards.
In this impressive work by the artist, he displays the working cowboys of the famous Diamond A Ranch. The Diamond A is a 500 square mile gem nestled in the boot heel of New Mexico. Snidow spent quite a bit of time there observing the relationship between cowboys, their horses, and the Hereford cattle in their charge.Condition
The painting appears to be in good condition. Under UV examination, there is no evidence of restoration or inpainting.
