Additional Details ------------------------------ Product description: Taking the Point is a signed and numbered limited edition print by Robert Pummill. This piece depicts a weary cowboy on horseback herding his longhorn cattle along the trail with mountains in the background. The image size is 13 1/2" x 22". Overall size is 18 3/4" x 27". It was published by Texas Art Press in 1979 in an edition size of 2,250. About the Artist: Robert Pummill hails from the Texas Hill Country. His hometown, Kerrville, was once a jumping-off point for trail herds bound north for Dodge City, Kansas. Pummill literally lives a stone?s throw from the clear-running Guadalupe River, where thousands of steers long ago crossed in the company of wild, young cowboys who were headed into history. The colorful cavalcade of longhorns, horses and heroes that once proudly passed by has become a recurrent theme in Pummill?s art. He also paints the wanderers who came West in wagons, Conestoga and Concord coaches, rolling upon an endless expanse of prairie grass that moved in the wind like ocean waves. Pummill?s art also includes Native American subjects in a talented tribute to the People who were at home and in harmony while the West was still theirs and the buffalo yet ran. In 1977 he became a full time painter at 41. ?From these experiences,? he points out, ?I acquired discipline and the ability to meet a specific goal, both time-wise and subject-wise. In Western art, just as in commercial art, you have to know what you want to end up with before you begin. The most important aspect of doing a painting is the ability to analyze what is necessary to re-create a mood or feeling.? Featured in magazines such as ?Art of the West,? ?Southwest Art? and ?Western Art Collector,? Pummill?s work can also be found in a book on his art, entitled ?Under Western Skies.?
