“One of my favorite things to do when we travel is just to wander backroads and watch and see what will come to me. Something wonderful almost always comes along. This day we were on a dirt road in the hills of Vermont when I caught out of the corner of my eye this scene. I immediately hit the brakes and we went and introduced ourselves and asked if this wonderful couple would mind if I took a few pictures. They were the most wonderful people who were just bringing in the first harvest to their barn. They posed and took us for a horse drawn tour of their beautiful Vermont hill farm. A bit of heaven!"
An aspiring artist from an early age, it was Robert Duncan’s childhood summers on his grandfather’s ten thousand acre Wyoming cattle ranch that deeply instilled in him a love of nature and rural life that continues to be the central focus of his life and art today. Duncan’s career began to flourish in the early 1980’s after he was juried into the prestigious Cowboy Artists of America organization. While he paints a variety of subjects ranging from pure landscapes to wildlife and figurative works, he is most recognized for his Native American subjects, with a particular focus on the daily lives of Ute, Crow and Blackfeet tribes and their interaction with the environment and nature.
