Veryl has been chronicling this relationship with paint and bronze since 2010.

“I cannot separate animals from my art, or them from the land, nor from the history they share with humans. For close to half a century I have sought to bring more recognition to the countless roles both domestic and wild animals have played in the history of the American West. I have also sought to capture the spirit of the softer side the the American West with women who are feminine, yet fiercely capable.”
