Cowboy Bear Bastion needs a night on the town. So why not have one with his best bud, handsome rancher Taylor Hawke? When these two men-hungry pals spend a summer evening at a bar called Cowboy Up!, things start out smooth. Taylor’s on the hunt for easy prey, and Bear meets an interesting cowboy painter named Welsey Westward, whom he calls West. Like most of Bear’s evenings on the town, things become chaotic after a few too many drinks. Taylor becomes easy, and Bear loses his temper. Soon a brawl begins at the bar, and Bear and Taylor end up leaving early. As if things can’t get any worse, they get into an argument on their drive home, and Taylor dumps Bear off in the middle of nowhere. Great! What’s he going to do now? Enter West, again. The painter finds Bear stranded on a back road, picks him up, and takes him back to his cabin. An attraction builds between the two cowboys and lust transpires, risqué paintings are revealed, secrets unfold, and mistakes occur. If only time could be reversed and tonight wouldn’t have happened ...

The first in a two-volume survey, readers are invited to re-examine the history of the West and its art through a multi-faceted contemporary lens. More than 40 artists are included who reflect the tremendous diversity, depth, and breadth of a field steeped in history. While some follow the traditions established by Remington and Russell, others seek to break from tradition, busting myths and bringing new insights and artistic styles to the genre. They come from both sides of the Mississippi and have pedigrees that range from bona fide cowboy or Native American credentials to careers in commercial illustration. The unifying theme is a common concern for and commitment to their art and the West itself. In this volume, contemporary artists are featured whose work revolves around the American Cowboy. Within these pages, many different artists, some of whom have been cowboys themselves, exhibit their rendition of the wonderful world of the West.

Each era in the history of the West has produced a small group of artists who have served to define the Western art genre and whose works have struck a particular chord with the public. Today, the market for Western art continues to boom and the Cowboy Artists of America have made the biggest contribution to this phenomenon. The most prestigious and widely recognized group of Western artists in the country, the CAA has defined the parameters of Western art, dictating style, subject matter, and market value. This large-format book features the artwork of more than fifty current and past members of this elite organization of painters and sculptors. Their subjects range from mountain men, early settlers, and Native Americans, to cowboy life of both the old West and the contemporary ranch. The Western landscape's defining character provides an underlying force throughout.
