Cheyenne Maiden

“My family has always been important. It was probably my first inspiration to start, to be able to make a living doing my painting. My kids and my wife have always supported me in the sense of emotional support.” – Charles Pabst

Some art collectors are also history aficionados. For them, Marcus Ashley Gallery offers an enticing repertoire of Charles Pabst art which includes representations of America’s Wild West. The gallery’s expert advisors work one-on-one with curators to carefully select the perfect pieces for their private, university, or corporate collections.

Pabst is passionate about the stories and images of the gold rush and the consequent western migration. In the state of Wyoming, these are celebrated year-round, and the artist captures it in Cheyenne Maiden. This print recalls the great outdoors of yore populated by cowboys riding in rodeos and traveling through the Mountain West on steam engine trains.

Pabst’s signature emotive lighting and dominant earth colors set against a pale blue sky will take a viewer back to the Frontier Days. Cheyenne Maiden is truly a remarkable oil-painted piece of history on canvas and is available for sale at the Marcus Ashley Gallery along with other works by Pabst.
