Bruce Greene has been a member of the Cowboy Artists of America since 1995. He is both an accomplished sculptor and painter. Primarily drawing upon the modern West, Greene paints the men and women who make their livings on the farms and ranches of Texas. For several years, he has traveled to the JA Ranch in the Texas Panhandle to participate in the annual round up and other ranching events. He credits his work on the ranch as giving him a special insight into the lives of the cowboys he portrays. He said, "just seeing how they go about their daily lives gives me a deeper understanding of the life that I am trying to portray in my work." Greene lives in Clifton, Texas, along with several other western artists. This painting shows that in addition to portraying horses and men, he is also able to capture with sensitivity the lives of the women who live and work alongside those cowboys.
