David DeVary

(1943-2020)

Described in a major publication as a ‘New West’ artist, DeVary used symbols of the American West to express universal emotions and themes, especially attitude. He surrounds his contemporary cowboys and cowgirls with silver, gold, and copper metallic leaf, so that the images become more of a romanticized icon rather than a depiction of the reality of a particular person or place or time.

He painted introspective, idealized and sometimes-provocative figures, capturing and combining the good feelings associated with the western myth and the American Dream. His use of bright yellow slickers, often black hats that shield the eyes, worn, antique chaps and the cowboy’s own natural body language helps create a striking, unique, almost ethereal portrait of the American cowboy and cowgirl.

‘I’m not painting history; rather, I’m trying to capture the American west the way we’d like it to be or the way it could be. Like the traditional western artist, I’m fascinated with this romanticized, idealistic west.’

DeVary exhibited in over a dozen Museum Exhibitions and his paintings are permanently on display at three: Rockwell Museum of Western Art, Booth Western Art Museum & Denver Art Museum. He is part of the Forbes Collection, New York, NY; British Petroleum Inc, New York, NY; and Culligan Water, Inc., Chicago, IL.
