From dust jacket notes: "The picturesque characters of the American West - the rugged, hard-working cowboy and the proud, resourceful Indian - have always fascinated the artist. In this unique book, a celebrated painter of the American West shows, in clear, step-by-step detail, how to paint these classic Western characters, from their faces to their boots and moccasins. Twenty-eight illustrated demonstrations will help the reader paint the shape and texture of every detail of a Western character study: the clothing - chaps, blue jeans, fringed buckskin jacket, cowboy shirt and vest, cowboy hat, bandana, Indian dress, bearskin, belt and buckle, cowboy boots, an Indian moccasin, and the glory of a full Indian headdress; and the equipment - lasso, spurs, pistol, rifle, and saddle....Finished paintings, reproduced in black and white and in color, offer additional examples of how to paint Western character studies with insight and dazzling technique."
