Description: I met Roy Purcell at a viewing in Las Vegas Nevada with several well known Southwest Artists at Goldwaters Southwest Shoppe.The gallery manager later took me to see the artist at his studio in Green Valley, NV where he had this incredible room size printing set up he designed and constructed. I saw an amazing collection of fantastic art. There he signed a copy of his latest book, THE WAYFARER published in 1984 and that volume is filled with incredible images, illustrations and is included with the purchase of this etching print. This framed piece is lovely but I've moved on from my southwest home and these items would do much better among those western artists of the times like Pena, Hartwig and Pic who seemed to be in every Las Vegas home in the day, the mid 1980's, they certainly were in mine. Roy's current website is https://purcellgalleries.com/about-roy and here is a partial quote form that site on the artist himself. NOTE:SHIPPING INCLUDES FULL INSURANCE"Roy Purcell is the constant journeyer, seeking from birth and time immemorial to explore and understand his journey as it reflects our own. Having early opened the door by word and image into the depths of his subconscious, he taps into its’ endless reserve of the collective memory of the world, its’ history, beauty and destiny. He grew up a shy oversensitive boy in a rural community of central Utah’s Wasatch Range, where the mountains cradled him and the vastness of the western desert beckoned his spirit. Drawn into that desert as a young man, the mystic qualities of his nature were ignited. After completing military, religious and educational endeavors, he sought solitude where he learned to listen to his inner creative voice. His search for meaning led him into history, mythology and psychology and the honing of his creative skills in writing and fine art."
