Reflecting on the people and legacy of the American West, the artist said, “I think that as time goes on and the world keeps spinning, we have a tendency as part of human nature to lose our sense of history. Really, without our history, we don’t have a future. We can’t forget our past. I think that is very important, because our knowledge comes from a sense of history, and we have to know who we were and where we came from in order to go forward.… I’m telling a part of the story of our American West, certainly a very colorful and dramatic part of our history. It’s also a part of our history that we can relate to, and it’s not that long ago.”
