This years featured artist at the National Western Stock Show's Western Art Exhibit is Teresa Elliott from Alpine, Texas. She creates wonderful paintings using oil paint as the medium. Her goal is to paint cattle in natural settings stating; "
I paint them as I see them, living in the moment, casually exchanging a glance with a visitor who may pick up on the operatic atmosphere I strive for." Her goal is to be a visual storyteller of the west.
In recent years Teresa has received many awards for her artwork and has been featured in several publications. Her recent honors and awards include;2012 American Art Invitational, Saks Galleries, Denver, CO; Third Place, Professional Artist's Magazine Cover Competition; People's Choice, Coors Western Art Exhibit, 2013, 2012, 2010, 2009; Best Of Show, Night Of Artist's, Briscoe Western Art Museum; Artist's Choice, Cowgirl Up!, 2008. She has been featured recently in these publications; American Art Collector; Western Art Collector; Southwest Art; Cowboys and Indians; Poets & Artists.
Teresa also paints human figures often playing and lounging in mud. The details and how she captures the moment is amazing in these works.
