Mark Kohler Texas Artist 1997 Cowboy Watercolor Early Work. Guaranteed original Watercolor unframed with no damage. The estate it came from were friends of Kohler's and I'll be listing a few of his works. According to his website he's been painting commercially for over 23 years, so this would be right about that time. Measures 15" x 11" on high end watercolor paper. "I have a passion for the American West, and for the last 16 years I've dedicated my God-given talent to one goal: documenting the independent spirit and pride that the modern working cowboy has inherited from his predecessors. It is uniquely American and worthy of preservation. Like artists before me, I am drawn to the West and the people and animals that tame this oftentimes harsh environment. I strive to capture the honor, the strength and the dignity with which they pursue their lives. It is my hope that these paintings reveal the heart and soul of my subjects, and the profound respect I have for them. It is my privilege to chronicle this amazing lifestyle and the rewards have been beyond measure." Mark Kohler is an award-winning watercolorist, the recipient of the 2008 Cowboy Artists of America Founders Award and the 2009 Phippen Museum Foundation Award. He has been invited to some of the oldest, traditional ranches still left in the country, including the O RO Ranch in Arizona and the Pitchfork Ranch in the Texas Panhandle. His works are included in private and corporate collections throughout the world. tw6
