More Dennis Boyd

While building on classic Western art traditions, Dennis Boyd is rapidly emerging as a fresh chronicler of the Western landscape and the distinct character of its inhabitants.  His art has begun to garner a loyal following among collectors in Montana.

Featured Artist: Dennis Boyd

  Dennis was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico, into a family of craftsmen, musicians and writers. His natural artistic talents were encouraged early on, and flourished in this nurturing environment.

  Growing up, Dennis developed a strong work ethic and sense of self-reliance. His desire to learn led him to the Colorado Institute of Art, where he developed strong graphic design skills that helped him to earn a living, as well as exposing him to diverse aesthetic influences and standards of quality and exactness.

  His diligent design and illustration skills were honed and applied during nine years in group settings, after which he struck out and established his own design business in 1998, several years after moving to Montana.

  Dennis’ adopted state is a land which has proved to be an endless source of inspiration for his fine art projects, especially his paintings of landscapes and his candid portraits of working cowboys and ranchers. These works won him several awards at regional art competitions, including Honorable Mention, Reserve Best of Show and 2nd Place Acrylics at the Greater Yellowstone National Juried  Show in 1997 & 2003, and Best Portrait at the Cody Country Art League National Juried Show in 1997. Dennis was invited to attend the Estes Park Plein Air 2003, 2004 and 2005.

  He has continued his journey of exploration and enrichment spending more time toting his portable easel around searching for new subject matter in the Montana and Wyoming outdoors.

  We feel extremely honored to have Dennis among the artists we represent.  Enjoy these paintings and come back to see more in the coming days.
