On Exhibit: Friday, Oct. 25 and Saturday, Oct. 26, 2024  at The Coates Western Art Exhibition and Sale at the David Southern Lake Granbury Conference Center.

A striking 18×24 oil painting on brushed aluminum panel, framed to enhance the depth and detail of the work. The piece features a rodeo cowboy in a moment of deep focus or perhaps calm amidst the intensity of his ride. Dressed in a floral-patterned shirt and a black hat, the rider is captured mid-ride, with one hand gripping the reins and the other poised as if lost in thought. The use of brushed aluminum gives the background a sleek, almost ethereal quality, allowing the figure and the intricate details of the saddle, leather straps, and tassels to stand out sharply. Reecer’s attention to texture—from the cowboy’s clothing to the coiled ropes and taut muscles of the horse—creates a palpable sense of stillness and tension. The title Sleepwalk hints at a dreamlike state, suggesting the rider’s trance-like immersion in the moment.
