Throughout Europe, Asia and North America, early peoples told stories of raven gods and their deeds. This raven sits alone on a gnarled branch, staring vigilantly into the mountain mist. His eyes scan the sky, watching for predator, prey or anything in between. Like all of Daniel Smith's realistic wildlife scenes, Mountain Sentinel places the viewer instantly in the wilderness habitat of his subject.

In preparation for an air assault by troops from the 1st Battalion, 7th Cavalry, United States artillery has been relentlessly pounding away at the perimeter of the LZ. At 10:48 the helicopter touches down, and Lt. Col. Moore, Sgt. Major Plumley, Capt. Metsker, Bob Ouellette, Al Bosse and Vietnamese translator Mr. Nik become the first boots on the ground at Ia Drang. Helicopter pilots Bruce Crandall and Ed Freeman would go on to receive the Medal of Honor for their actions during the battle of Ia Drang, a battle which would go down in history as one of the most intense of the Vietnam War. This three-day struggle would later be documented in the best-selling book We Were Soldiers Once…and Young by Lt. Gen. Hal Moore (Ret.) and Joseph Galloway. William S. Phillips compellingly depicts the chaos of LZ X-Ray in First Boots on the Ground. The piece is countersigned by Lt. Gen. Hal Moore, (Ret.), Lt. Col. Bruce Crandall (Ret.), (MOH), Command Master Sgt.

In his latest original, this “Storyteller of the Native American” has created a stunning vision of three Crow Indians as they begin to cross a river. “These three Crows are part of a war party in search of their enemy,” Howard says. “Knowing how to find the ford in a river is a big advantage and this is a skill that comes naturally to these three plains Indians.” This new Terpning image will be printed on textured canvas. This unique and valuable technique replicates the look and feel of a Terpning’s original painting, including canvas texture and brushstrokes.

The head masks (or face masks) worn by horses were usually made for leading warriors and were considered medicine objects that gave power, protection and strength to the horse and its rider. The masks often had beautiful quill work, beads and feathered adornment and their design was sometimes inspired by a vision. Central to Native American medicine is the belief that each human, and every object, has a corresponding presence in the spirit world. These spirits can promote health, wisdom, and even success in battle. Don’t pass up this chance to own a Howard Terpning limited edition.

In the lion, one may find strength, grace, intelligence, beauty, nobility and utter and exquisite laziness. The lion is so convincing in his perfection that he has managed to become crowned "King of the Jungle," when in fact lions can currently be found in the wild only on the grasslands. Daniel Smith has perfectly captured the glorious, arrogant perfection of the lion in his newest painting, The Sublime. Smith has captured an idyllic moment, where the greatness of the animal kingdom meets with the shining light of the heavens.

The surroundings in his native southwest Montana continue to inspire him and provide him with the opportunity to paint from personal experience, which gives his work both striking detail and stirring realism. Smith has admitted an attraction to predators and dangerous game and his affinity for great bears is apparent in Retreat from the Heat. As the harsh morning sun heats the earth, the only cool surface available to this magnificent grizzly bear is a rushing stream. The wet fur on his belly and legs attest to the bear's love of the water as he plunges in with his massive front paws. The water itself looks so inviting and the sun, so harsh, that you may have to stop yourself from attempting to share this grizzly's Retreat from the Heat.

Since the 1960s, however, the mountain lion population has rebounded thanks to new protective laws. In artist Daniel Smith's home state of Montana, the growing number of cougars has created some overlap in territory between the wild and civilization. A great cat sitting at the edge of a driveway is a sight that has become all too familiar to many residents, including Daniel Smith, who recently looked up into a tree on his property to find a cougar wrapped around the upper branches like an overgrown kitten. The mountain lion in Smith's newest painting, however, is in his glory in the wild. Smith's detailed style captures the curl of the cougar's tail and the tension in his muscles so realistically that you may feel the need to slowly back away from this cat On the Edge.

I always liked the peace and tranquility of running water, like watching a fire at night—it’s got that same mesmerizing quality.”

As the lionesses catch up, he stands at attention and scans the horizon for signs of trouble. A dry, hot breeze ruffles his mane but still the young lion stands in the dry grass, unblinking, unmoved and utterly In His Prime. Artist Simon Combes spent the majority of his adult life painting wildlife in his homeland, Africa. His dynamic animal portraits and sweeping landscapes earned him honors from The Society of Animal Artists, the Pacific Rim Wildlife Art Show and the Florida Wildlife Expo. In the early 1990s, Combes set out to paint a series of the world's largest cats (his favorite subject) for The Greenwich Workshop, a project which eventually resulted in the trade book Great Cats: Stories and Art from a World Traveller and a collector's portfolio of limited edition prints.

Each of Barney’s truly unique paintings is a frank, compelling and often mysterious portrait of the “muses” of our daily lives. The feminine charms of her characters have captured the attention of the sophisticated fine art collector. (Two of Cassandra’s first releases, Dora and Four Spanish Sisters, have recently Sold Out at Publisher.)The Bridesmaids unveils a whimsical trio getting ready to participate in the wedding party. Possibly posed for a snapshot,snapshot, this moment in time captures each of their personalities as they find themselves caught in a moment of contemplation. The truth is... you can’t say for sure what exactly Cassandra Barney’s bevy of painted ladies are thinking, but these three undoubtedly conjure suggestions of joy and anticipation. Whether displayed singly, or in combination with others from Cassandra’s collection, her latest pair of releases, Beauty and The Bridesmaids, continue a tradition of enchantment.

For Daniel Smith to portray such an intimate understanding of this raptor’s nature attests to the time he spends in its natural habitat. The bald eagle (haliaeetus leucocephalus), is found over most of North America, from Alaska and Canada to northern Mexico. In 1782 the Continental Congress officially adopted the current design for the Great Seal of the United States, emboldened with a bald eagle grasping arrows and an olive branch with its talons. While on the brink of extinction late in the 20th century, today the population of the great bird has stabilized, ensuring that this living embodiment of freedom continues its reign.

Surrounding the monument were framed photographs of local young men who had been killed in World War II. Bill was particularly moved by one photograph of a fresh-faced boy, his arms around a cow. "This was no jack-booted Nazi. This was a farm kid who loved his home and went off to fight for it, just as American boys had done." The boy’s story began to develop in Bill’s imagination: the young German had gone into the Luftwaffe and learned to fly fighter jets. One day, early in the war, the boy and a friend had buzzed the home valley in their BF-109s. "I guess all pilots have done that, in every country," says Bill. "The pride of flight is universal." Bill checked with a German pilot, who said the practice was strictly verboten — "…but of course we did it."

I imagined that early one morning as Sun’s rays swept across the land, this old man dismounted from his pony. He held up his sacred eaglewing fan and his pipe and prayed to Sun as his two warrior grandsons looked on with deep respect for their grandfather and the traditions he embodied. “The story in a painting like this is in the faces of the figures. I wanted to capture a reverence in the faces of these young men for their grandfather and the only way to do that is to make a large enough canvas that your figures can be large.With a large format you can introduce more drama, you can enter more into the play of light and shadow on the figures and you can achieve a more dramatic effect than you would on a smaller canvas.” Terpning’s passion for the story of the Native American, combined with his formidable talent as a painter, makes each of his Fine Art Limited Editions a unique and commanding treasure for your home or office.

That is the dilemma James C. Christensen presents in The Rich Young Ruler. Christensen’s most popular scriptural works have focused on the challenge to live our faith, to give all that we have and to live in a state of thankfulness. Just before his triumphal entrance into Jerusalem, Jesus passed through a town where a righteous young man asked him what he could do to inherit eternal life. The young man told Jesus how he followed the Commandments and obeyed the laws of his people, but Jesus asked something more: “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor,” he said, “and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” The home of The Rich Young Ruler is filled with symbols of both his success and his dilemma. The laden camels in the frieze in the foreground illustrate Jesus’ next words to his disciples, “It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. ”The ruler himself is richly dressed in fine fabrics and jewels and the room is filled with lush plants, which in a desert setting would be quite costly to maintain. Sputtering beside the entrance to the door is the ruler’s lamp that, like the flame of his belief, wavers in the wind. These symbols, combined with Christensen’s unique style, make The Rich Young Ruler an elegant story of difficult decisions and of a Master who will always look back and offer another chance. “The original painting was commissioned by a successful businessman, today’s equivalent of a rich young ruler,” says Christensen. “He wanted a visual reminder that success has many forms and that faith is its own reward. He wanted to ask himself every day what he would have done in that situation.”

The stage for this joyous vision in a pastel palate is set in a Christensen fantasy world, as we join a maiden and her unusual wedding party sailing into destiny.

Parts for these machines were scavenged from local dumps, Basements and garages. The most exciting part of these adventures was the initial test run; usually done on the highest neighborhood hill. In the painting ‘Up And Over’ I’ve tried to capture the thrill of anticipation as the home made racer tops Murphy’s Hill for the first time. Remembering back to my lack of daring I have pictured myself as the cart pusher and my two younger cousins as the test pilots."

You are witness to something few humans ever see. The sweet smell of incense carried on the breeze has awoken you from your rest in the woods and you capture a glimpse of the king and queen of the faeries passing by. "This is not the May Day parade or a Coronation," James C. Christensen explains. "Simply, this is The Royal Processional - just your regular, everyday king and queen of the Faeries entourage." Inspired by the grand processions of history, fiction and movies, Christensen provides a glimpse of the faerie world by fashioning an eclectic parade of fantasy forest denizens. "The king in the armor is Oberon and the queen is Tatiana," says Christensen. "They are the rulers of the Faeries. Other fascinating creatures waiting to be discovered are their laughing faeries-in-waiting, their old prime minister with the butterfly banner, the young wizard-in-training with his nose in a book, and the incense bearers to alert - by smell - the other forest creatures." Join The Royal Processional and set yourself apart from mere mortals.

With wonder and awe the child gazes upon the unusual gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. The expression on the child’s face is captured with dozens of camera flashes before the scene ends and the actors discard their elaborate robes. But for Utah artist Liz Lemon Swindle, this is the beginning. “By studying photographs from a dramatization of this moment between the wise men and the child,” Liz says, “I am able to better understand the sacred events that brought the Holy Men to Bethlehem. Their costly gifts to Jesus were not typical presents extended to a child to make him merry. They were gifts for a ruling monarch, in reverence to his birth as King. I created this work based on Matthew 2:1-16 which describes Christ as a young child when first visited by the wise men. The scene is often portrayed in the stable but according to the Scriptures, it could have been 18 to 24 months later." The Holy Men is the fourth work of art to be published in the Son of Man Series. Portraits of the mortal life of Jesus Christ, from the first scene of Mary and the babe Jesus to the Holy Men - referring not only to the wise men but Jesus himself, has become the hallmark, if not the signature, of the artist.

"I never cease to be inspired by the wonder and curiosity of children,” says Weistling. “This little farm girl loves to spend time with her chickens and found her way into the coop one day. This serene moment I painted changed rapidly after she decided to stick her thumbs into the eggs to see what would happen. It got pretty messy." Morgan Weistling’s contemporary impressionism celebrates the wonder of a timeless America, as well as the beauty of everyday moments. His painting, Quilting Bee, 19th Century Americana, was the winner of several awards at the most recent Masters of the American West Art Show and Sale, where it sold for over $160,000. The Egg Inspector is a sweet and easy way to begin collecting the works of this fine artist.
