ASPIN is sponsoring an on-line chat forum, open to the public, with various Western artists, held in conjunction with the 10th Annual Western ArtWalk. The ArtWalk, sponsored by Mindspring, is held Oct. 21-23 in the Scottsdale Arts District. The Scottsdale Gallery Association's (SGA) yearly round up features some of the West's greatest art galleries open to the public. The chats are scheduled for October 21, 1999. Guests: Darryl Willison - his whimsical cowboy art defies the wild west tradition. It will be on display at the Joan Cawley Gallery, www.jcgltd.com, 7135 E. Main in Scottsdale from Oct. 7 - 28. An online chat is scheduled Thursday October 21st, 3-4 pm. Darryl Willison, Jr., America's Drawing Cowboy is taking the country by storm! This young artist's work of the vivid and whimsical west will take you back to the days of yesteryear of wild west heroes, villains, and the country side they roamed! Darryl has recreated in his own unique style a part of American history he feels is an essential part of our culture. His fiery colors and sometimes humorous approaches to his subject matter remind us of the vintage days of Hollywood when Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, Rex Allen and Tom Mix rode the open plains in search of truth, justice and the occasional buffalo! Darryl feels that the silver screen cowboy gave people a "real" hero to look up to, and were a fascination to the world.
