Remington "Demystifying the Masters" with Jenness Cortez (Episode 2)

When looking at Frederic Remington’s “Stampede by Lightning,” and especially at the lanky, breathless rider in the foreground, I started thinking about all the tales cowboys surely repeated again and again, to themselves and to whoever might listen. My painting, “Conversations with a Cowboy,” is my report of that imagining. Whether you are an art collector, historian or student, please join me as I discuss my work and all the supporting elements of paintings, books and historical objects that more completely tell the stories suggested by my research into cowboy life.
