"This painting idea was born in my head when I was in Jackson Hole Wyoming for a show. I saw a book there that was called “the early days In JH”.. on the cover you see a rodeo happening with the Teton in the back. I thought the image was way cool and wanted to paint something in that vibe.. but not a rodeo. So I had this image of my friend Skeeter that was pretty incredible, when his own horse spooked while he was going to work on that new horse. I figured this would be a great image for my idea and that’s how the painting was born."
