This is just a terrific 1940’s painting of a portrait of a Cowboy that looks a lot like Tom Mix, by listed WPA era artist. Cowboy has such an easy going expression in this work that surely belies the hard work and tough life these guys actually lived. But thats the thing about Kusianovich, he can bring out what he sees in a person and put to canvas or paper with ease, detail and feeling in his fantastic portrait work. The cowboy is almost. But I can’t quite place the face though he sure looks a lot like Tom Mix, though I cannot be positive. Just a piece that is a super representation of the ole Southwest. This painting comes straight from the 2nd floor storage area of the family estate and is first time to the market in probably 50+ years. It comes now framed as you see it as I recently got it finished, its framed size is 26″ tall x 19.5″ wide. Any questions PLEASE ask! Some info on the artist.
