Featured in this lot is this 2008 oil-on-canvas of a smoking cowboy by Margie Jackson (born 1934 and passed 2021). The painting shows a cowboy on horseback, lighting a cigarette as the herd settles down for the night. The artist’s signature can be seen in the bottom right-hand corner with the date just underneath. Margie Jackson (1934-2021) was a painter for years before she became a sculptor. Her experience at casting her creations in bronze began around 1976. Jackson lived on a farm in Yelm, Washington, but she 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 framed oil-on-canvas is good, with slight wear to the bottom of the frame and some red marks. The measurements of this framed artwork are 29 3/4" x 39 3/4" and the visible art measures 19 1/2" x 29 1/2". Provenance: This is from the personal Artist Margie Jackson.
