“S o why Oil Rig Art?!”

I rarely say it, but when I’m asked this, I secretly think “If you have to ask…”.

It’s never the folks actually in the gas and oil business that ask; it’s always outsiders.

City folks. Other artists. My mother in law.

I suppose the short and fast answer is “Geographical Convenience”.

I’ve lived my whole life in Oil Country.

When The Patch is doing well, we all do well. The landscape of my life is dotted with pump jacks and drilling rigs.

My dad worked on the rigs to supplement the farm’s income (like farming wasn’t enough work!) and I have lifelong friends who are multigenerational in the oilfield service industry. Their dads, and their kids.

I know you guys. I respect you guys. I’m thankful for what you do.

It’s a big deal.

A better question might be “If I didn’t draw oil rig stuff, what the hell ELSE who I do?!?”

An original photograph of an oil field is okay; in fact, I use them for reference and research all the time, but the amount of time it takes to hand draw my art in pencil seems to resonate with the people who’ve Been There.
