Reaves Studio
Thousand Oaks, CA
Captivated by the allure of the American west since childhood, James Reaves found himself drawn to the wild and woolly days of the past. Inspired by the television show Rawhide, he would spend hours riding his rocking horse off into the sunset, yearning to relive the days of spurs jingling and gun shots whistling. This deep connection to the history of "The Wild West" is evident in his vibrant paintings and pastels, where he captures the action of Cowboys, Indians, and Bronc riders with close-up contemporary compositions and strong colors.
To satiate his appetite for creation, James Reaves branched out to various forms of art that serve as his muse. His pieces are a great re-invention of our heritage, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the dynamic energy of the west. With each brush stroke, he brings to life the spirit of the American frontier, inviting others to share in his passion for this iconic era.
