Featured in this lot is this oil on board titled "Sizing Him Up," by artist Margie Jackson born 1934 died 2021. The painting was constructed using a pallet knife and oil paint and features a young colt in a round pen with the trainer/ buckaroo in the center of the round pen sizing the horse up and features a saddle on the ground. The round pen is constructed from long branches and the hillside can be seen in the distance. The artist signature can be seen in the bottom right hand corner and the title is shown penciled in on the back of the painting. Her experience at casting her creations in bronze began around 1976. Jackson lived on a farm in Yelm, Washington, but grew up in Texas and Oklahoma. Because the range was open and cattle left on their own, they would be prey to packs of wolves and coyotes. Horses were still respected as a means of transportation and the area was plentiful with Native Americans still richly steeped in their own culture, lending to the inspiration of her work. Among her numerous awards are Best of Show-Sculpture at the Celebration of Western Art Show in Olympia, Washington and First and Second places at the 1986 and 1987 Arizona Annual Art Shows. She was commissioned to create bronze and limited-edition prints celebrating the Washington State Centennial; the city of Yelm purchased one of these pieces for installation in the City Hall. The condition of this painting is good with no obvious signs of damage and in good overall condition. The measurements of this painting are 35 1/8" x 29" and the visible art measures 27 3/4" x 21 1/2". Provenance: This is from the personal Artist Margie Jackson.
