‘Weathering the Bend’ by Alexandra Verboom Fritz.
Original oil on 18 × 24 1.5 inch canvas.
Weathering the Bend follows a cowboy and a band of cattle as they wind along a creekside trail through the remote timber country of British Columbia's Chilcotin region. The narrow route and steep banks slow the herd's progress, requiring patience as horse, rider, and livestock navigate the country together.
Inspired by a cattle drive near Fosberry Cow Camp on Gang Ranch, this piece reflects the quiet persistence required to move livestock through vast and often unforgiving landscapes. It celebrates the resilience of both the people and animals whose work unfolds far from roads and fences.
Framed in a unstained wood floater frame.

Featured Originals
‘On the Fly’ by Alexandra Verboom Fritz.
Original acrylic on 12 × 12 × 0.75 inch on wood panel.
On the Fly captures a fleeting moment as a cowboy throws a loop to rope a cow for 'doctoring.' In cattle work, opportunities often appear and disappear in an instant, requiring horse and rider to respond with precision, timing, and confidence.
The painting reflects the adaptability that ranching demands, where success is often determined by decisions made in the moment. Inspired by a Douglas Lake cowboy and the rolling grasslands of British Columbia's Nicola Valley, this piece celebrates the horsemanship, stockmanship, and trust that allow difficult jobs to be accomplished safely and efficiently.
Framed in a natural unstained wood floater frame ready to be installed.

‘Weathered and Worn’ by Alexandra Verboom Fritz.
Original oil on 14 × 11 x 1.5 inch canvas
Weathered and Worn portrays a cowboy loosening his horse's cinch at the end of a long, wet day, while a trusted cattle dog waits nearby. With the work behind them and the horse soon to be trailered home, the gesture reflects a long-standing tradition of caring for the animals that make ranching possible.
The painting reflects the resilience that is built through a lifetime of ranching—not through dramatic moments, but through the steady accumulation of ordinary days and hard-earned experience. Inspired by Western singer-songwriter and rancher Ryan Fritz, and the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, this piece celebrates the enduring character of those who dedicate their lives to the land, their livestock, and the animals that work alongside them.
Framed in a unstained wood floater frame.
