Excellence in Art Since 1963
NEWSLE T TER | JUNE 2019
Dear Friends Our summer season in Jackson Hole gets under way on June 17 with our annual High Country Summer show and sale. This show is one with wide collector appeal as the works curated for the event feature a variety of subjects and artistic styles. We have a number of new works from gallery favorites including Z.S. Liang, Mian Situ, Jenness Cortez, Kathleen Dunphy, Bradley Schmehl and Lanny Grant among others. We hope you can join us for our Open House at the gallery on Thursday evening June 20. Additionally, we are pleased to have two featured showcases in June for Nicholas Coleman and Ross Buckland. Life in the Rockies highlights the latest studio paintings from Coleman, whose subjects include both western and wildlife art.
Robert Duncan, Along the River Trail, oil on canvas, 36 x 48 inches, $32,000
Through the guidance of his father, renown painter, and sculptor Michael Coleman, Nicholas has been painting and drawing since he was a young boy. Coleman’s work has a degree of spontaneity and a slight impressionistic feel that allow the viewer to participate in the scenes he creates. He endeavors to create a connection between his paintings and the observer by invoking a mood that the viewer can walk into. Canadian artist Ross Buckland brings us Beyond All Roads, a collection of new aviation art. Buckland’s paintings are influenced by his own flying experience mixed with a sentimental, nostalgic notion of aviation's adventurous past. As can be seen in his newest studio works, the goal is not necessarily to depict an actual location or event, but rather to celebrate the natural elements and the typical environment and circumstances of flying far from the established airways. Looking ahead, we have a full schedule of shows planned for July through September. For the latest information and dates for these upcoming events, please check our website regularly and also visit us via our online platforms including Facebook, Pinterest, Linkedin, Twitter, and Instagram. Should your summer travel bring you to Jackson, we look forward to having you stop in for a visit.

NICHOLAS COLEMAN: LIFE IN THE ROCKIES JUNE 1 - JUNE 29, 2019 Jackson, Wyoming "I love painting the American west. I live in the foothills of the Wasatch Front and get to look across the valley to Utah Lake and the mountains beyond. I'm treated with some of the most picturesque sunsets you’ll ever see, not to mention fantastic storm clouds that move in over our mountain range. I’ve studied the history of the American West, the turmoil, and the struggle for life. The work I pursue and the stories I tell in paint is an expression of my respect and reverence for my subject. I'm always at home wherever I am in the west." - Nicholas Coleman

"Not unlike today's cowboy artists, my personal input is perhaps influenced by my own flying experience mixed with a sentimental, nostalgic notion of aviation's adventurous past. It is one of the very few of man's endeavors where, through the passing of time, the hardships of freezing temperatures, black flies and mosquitoes, impossible weather and moments of sheer terror have somehow become 'the good old days’. My efforts are to primarily evoke, awaken or satisfy a feeling... the romantic nostalgia of remembered or imagined experiences and to remind us that, fortunately, there is still much more wilderness adventure to enjoy." - Ross Buckland Smoke Break, oil on board, 18 x 24 inches, $5,200 T R A I L S I DE G A L LER IES.COM

NEW WORKS BY JENNESS CORTEZ
Formidable, acrylic on mahogany panel, 24 x 24 inches, $30,000
The Master, acrylic on mahogany panel, 24 x 18 inches, $26,000
"Given the many western subjects I have painted in recent years, this new grouping of wildlife paintings may surprise some collectors, but this recent work is actually a return to my first love. I’ve always painted animals. In fact, growing up in rural Indiana, the very first paintings I sold (at age 15) were conformation portraits of blue ribbon bulls. Years later the New York State Museum commissioned me to create a series of paintings depicting the endangered species of the Adirondack Mountains for its permanent collection and I spent decades chronicling the performances and conformation of famous thoroughbred racehorses. Because my intention in these new paintings is to honor the dignity and character of individual wild animals, I have chosen to emphasize both the beauty and the persona of each particular subject. This process has resulted in ‘Jack,’ as the anxious jackrabbit, the ‘Master’ and ‘Sentinel’ as self-confident, intelligent foxes, and ‘Formidable’ as the intimidatingly powerful mountain lion.” - Jenness Cortez 10
