Wildlife and aviation artist Priscilla Patterson from Post Falls has had her works accepted into the Cheyenne Days Western Spirit Art Exhibition. The exhibition will run from March 7 to April 19 at the Old West Art Museum in Cheyenne, with an online preview beginning February 13. Two of her watercolor paintings, "Lookouts" and "Quick Draw," will be featured, the latter depicting the fast-paced cowboy sport of mounted shooting.
This exhibition provides a significant platform for a local artist to gain wider recognition within the niche genre of Western art. Patterson's inclusion highlights the continued vitality and regional appeal of Western-themed art shows, which serve as important community and cultural events connecting artists with audiences interested in heritage and equestrian subjects.
