Colored Pencil on Canson Pastel Paper

Colored pencil 'painting' of a Pro Bull Rider at a rodeo event. The portrait is on a maroon Canson pastel paper.

Bull riding is a blend of both performance and contest. Pro Bull Riding's performance level permits pageantry and ritual which serve to revitalize the spirit of the Old West while its contest level poses a man-animal opposition that articulates the transformation of nature and dramatizes and perpetuates the conflict between the wild and the tame.

This is a 18" X 20" ORIGINAL fine art portrait in colored pencil on high-quality Canson paper. Suitable for home or office and western-themed decor.
