Original Ross Stefan Oil On Canvas, Halfway To Kayenta, Listed Arizona Artist
Original Ross Stefan Oil On Canvas, Halfway To Kayenta, Listed Arizona Artist. This is a spectacular original oil painting by listed artist, Ross Stefan (1934 -1999). It was acquired from the private collection of a local Northwest artist. Due to ill health, Ross Stefan moved to southern Arizona in 1953, where he became an art student at the University of Arizona. In his spare time, Stefan worked as an illustrator for the Tucson Daily Citizen, using a melding of his own self-taught style with that of his early muse, Norman Rockwell. This foray into paid work convinced Ross Stefan to quit his studies at the University and begin painting full-time in 1955 in a studio and gallery he established in Tubac. It was also in 1955 that Ross Stefan first traveled out into the desert to spend time with the Navajos, painting and drawing the people and landscapes of the untouched West. From that point onward, Stefans work was amongst the most coveted and best-collected in the state of Arizona, with major retrospectives of his work at the Phippen Museum, the Harmsen Collection, the Denver Art Museum, the Pierce Western Collection, the Phoenix Art Museum and the Sangre de Cristo Arts Center. Ross Stefans scenes of pueblo life and the southern Arizona landscape are still archetypes of the genre, and his legacy is secure as one of the leading Arizona artists of the twentieth century. ” This painting is titled “Halfway To Kayenta. It depicts 3 Navajo figures riding on horseback as they make their way across the snowy Arizona landscape.
