Three Little Pigs

Additional Information

Provenance:
Private collection, Arizona

Named after the children’s fable, Three Little Pigs show a trio of javelina crossing through a camp unbeknownst to the cowboy in the teepee or the horse in the distant shadows. The image certainly comes from something Bill Owen saw in his own life in the West. His father a cowboy and his mother an artist, Owen combined the two careers into one. He originally worked in both paint and clay, but a rodeo injury in 1989 cost him an eye, which made working in three dimensions difficult, so he abandoned sculpture to paint exclusively. He was elected to the Cowboy Artists of America in 1973 and he guided the group during pivotal years of growth.
